Sobre este item
New York: Rinehart & Company, Inc., 1955 WYSIWYG pricing--no added shipping charge for standard shipping within USA. Brown boards, blue cloth spine with foil & orange titles, vii, 275 pp, b & w frontispiece & chapter headpieces. Extemities slightly rubbed. DJ spine faded & chipped, edge tears to 3 cm, corner clipped but price still present; in Brodart archival cover. From the DJ: "A few pork-knockers [gold & diamond prospectors], bolder than the rest, have gone beyond their usual grounds and have explored haphazardly, sometimes for years, alone. Such men are unhandy with a pen, but one or two have the eye of the solitary resourceful traveller in sympathy with his landscape. This work is entirely based on the experiences of one of these prospectors, a British West Indian and a personal friend of the author, who wishes to remain anonymous. The author has aimed to present a faithful portrayal of this man's life and of the Patamona with whom he lived." Shipping weight 2 lbs.. . VG+/VG-. Illus. by Ralph Thompson. 21 X 14½ cm.

Termos da venda
Twin City Antiquarian Books
Books are offered subject to prior sale. You may return any book within 14 days for a refund; if it was not as described, we will also refund return shipping costs (but please e-mail us first). You can place credit card orders through Biblio, or we will ship upon receipt of payment by check or money order. Sales tax is collected by Biblio and remitted directly to your state, where applicable. SHIPPING IN UNITED STATES: Books are priced postpaid, so there are no additional shipping charges for standard shipping. We will ship via Priority Mail for $12.00 per order (Save on multiple-book orders!). This may be reduced if actual postage is less than for a medium flat-rate box. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: In most cases, shipping via Biblio's consolidated shipping program via Asendia is the cheapest option on orders up to 5 lbs. International shipping rates are complex (cost depends upon weight and destination), so please feel free to email us for a quote before you order. If the actual cost of shipping is more than the automatically quoted rate, you must approve the additional charges before the order will be shipped. Shipping charges will be reduced if shipping weight is under 3 lbs. All shipping charges (except via Asendia) include 17% to cover Biblio fees and commissions that apply to these charges. LIBRARIES: We offer flexible terms to public and university libraries.
