New York: Bantam Classic, March 1981. Mass Market Paperback. Second printing, August 1981. Near Fine. Lightly tanned, but unmarked. Spine straight, tight and uncreased. Covers clean. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. 122 pages. The story of a gentle man who, though pummeled and slapped in every direction by fate, clings desperately to the belief that he lives in "the best of all possible worlds." On the surface a witty, bantering tale, this eighteenth-century classic is actually a savage, satiric thrust at the philosophical optimism that proclaims that all disaster and human suffering is part of a benevolent cosmic plan.

Tuscon: University of Arizona Press, November 1984. Trade Paperback. Fourth printing, 1996. Fine. Spine faded, otherwise As New. Interior pristine. Spine straight and tight. Corners sharp. Covers clean and bright. xxxvi + 277 pages. Fifty B&W illustrations. This account of the second Powell expedition is a reprint of the 1962 Yale edition and includes all 50 illustrations and a substantial foreword by William H. Geotzmann. One of the seminal books on western history. The author was only 17 when he began the expedition, and he hero-worshiped Powell all his life. Yet this bright, sharp account is so detailed and truthful that the reader can see through his enthusiasm to discover Powell's mean spirit and sometimes reckless nature. It's also a great river-running book.
