An association copy, inscribed in the year of publication on the front free endpaper: "To Ms. Liveright, who may find readers of this [?] in her family circle, with the warm regards of her old boss, Gifford Pinchot, July 1936." Alice F. Liveright was a committed social activist appointed by Pinchot as Pennsylvania's Secretary of Welfare from 1931-1935, the years he was in office as governor (several decades after his time as Forest Service Chief) and just proceeding the publication of this book. A nice association as such.

Sobre Rural Hours
Rural Hours (formerly Wood + River = Books, est. 2019) specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, environmental literature, and contemporary essay, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions. We draw our name from the popular-but-then-forgotten book by Susan Fenimore Cooper (published in 1850), generally considered the first work of environmental creative nonfiction by a woman in the U.S. We are interested in challenging and expanding the canon of environmental literature and finding books that tell remarkable stories and illuminate the tradition of writing about place and natural history.
