About This Item
New York: Abelard-Schuman, 1971. Revised. Hardcover. Very Good/fair. Signed and inscribed by the author on the dedication page, "To Dan Mitchel, who I hear appreciates our Western heritage. All my best wishes. Pearl Baker 8/7/73. This is a gift from the Lee Underwoods." Laid in at front are a signed, typed letter from the author to the inscriptee and a camping flier for the Green River area. A very good copy with bending at the spine tips being the only discernible flaw - clean, tight and unmarked other than the author's signature. The dustjacket is not so good - fair with ruffling, chips and short tears along the edges - much scuffing to the front panel. 224 pp., some black and white photos. In spite of the wear to the jacket - a really unique collector's item, and a solid history of the bandits and robbers that called Baker's property home and hideout in the 1800s.
