Sobre este item
New York, NY Ballantine Books, 1998. Paperback First Edition Thus [1998]; First Printing indicated by a complete numerical sequence. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY AUTHOR. First Edition Thus [1998]; First Printing indicated by a complete numerical sequence. Very Near Fine in Wraps: pages have tanned a bit, due to aging; the binding shows barely discernible spine lean; else flawless; the binding remains perfectly secure; the text is clean. Free of creases to the covers. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome nearly-new copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing a couple of minor, unobtrusive flaws. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (8.25 x 5.55 x 0.7 inches). 288 pages. Language: English. Weight: 9.7 ounces. Trade Paperback. Mount Rainier, North America's biggest volcano, looms over Seattle like an invitation to... adventure? Disaster? Discovery? It's all of the above for Bruce Barcott, a Seattle writer who captures the mountain from multiple angles in this luminous biography that defines Rainier's landscape to be like none other on the continent. A literate, entertaining view of a totemic Northwest landmark. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY AUTHOR.
