Sobre este item
Helena: TwoDot, Falcon Publishing, Inc., 2000. First Edition. First printing Fine in purple paper covered boards with gilt text stamping on the spine and on the front board. In a fine unclipped dust jacket. Edited by Rick Newby and with an introduction and afterword by Larry Len Peterson. Illustrated with eleven "never-before-published" pen and ink drawings by C. M. Russell. 364 pages followed by several pages of ads by the publisher. The author completed his manuscript describing his adventures as a trapper and scout in the early 1900's. In 1913, before attempting to publish his book he corresponded with Charlie Russell for his assistance as an illustrator. Evidently, the costs of publication must have discouraged Cooper for he died in 1924 without seeing his book go into print. With this publication his manuscript has finally found the eye of the public.
