Cardinal Giant GC-30, Bantam 992, Dell D430, Pocket 511 Book. Good or better. Paperbacks. Various editions.. 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall. A four-book lot of life stories, the first telling us of "three remarkable idealists and how they built a small-town practice into the world-famous Mayo Clinic," the second about a veterinarian who "left a horse-and-cow practice in Louisiana to take on the toughest veterinary job in the world -- protecting the immense fortune tied up in the magnificent horses and wild beasts of the greatest show on earth," the fourth a son's "hilarious and affectionate portrait" of his "open-eyed, open-handed and open-hearted" father, and the last giving us "The adventures, new horizons and happiness of two people who 'escaped' big city life." These being vintage paperbacks, the bindings may not be up to a robust reading, so a little care while reading them might be a good idea. Not collectible copies…

Description:
Tallinn: Eesti Raamat, 1991. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. Inscribed & Signed by Author. First Edition.. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Text in Estonian. B.G. (Bengt Gottfried) Forselius was a 17th-century Estonian educator who introduced a number of educational innovations, among them the creation of a spelling system that simplified both the teaching and learning of Estonian. An uncommon title, and if you can read Estonian, you can be the envy of everyone on your block. Navy leatherette w/gold lettering to front cover/spine, 116 pages. This copy inscribed on reverse of first end paper (my Estonian is a bit rusty, and I'm not terribly familiar with the process Forselius created to facilitate learning the language, so please forgive me if I don't provide an accurate translation -- or even a wildly inaccurate one). Light general wear..

Apparently legal action was threatened, and the offending pages were omitted. Blue cloth, 300 pages. Remainder stripe across bottom edge. Dust jacket w/light edgewear..
