Sobre este item
Chicago: The Lakeside Press, 1936. First thus. Very good- in decorated red cloth covered boards with a gilt top edge to the text block and gilt text stamping on the spine and on the front board. The rear board is badly stained, the gilt logo on the front board has a nasty scratch and the cloth at the head and heel of the spine is lightly worn and rubbed. The end sheets are foxed in the hinge areas due to a reaction with the glues used in binding. A Lakeside Classic release of 1936. With the fold-out map intact following page 42 in fine condition. Originally published anonymously in England in 1848 as a pamphlet it describes the life of a woman and her family who left England in 1831 to settle in "the wilds of western Illinois." Edited by Milo Milton Quaife. 167 pages including an index.
