Book shows some shelf wear to tips, corners and edges, clean and unmarked; much more wear top the jacket which is edgeworn, chipped, rubbed, spine sunned. In the first half of the 20th century the collaborators, young men of the American West, worked for the Bureau of Biological Survey (the precursor of the US Fish and Wildlife Service). All became noteworthy in their fields. Their knowledge and experiences inform this ornithological survey of pre-statehood Alaska. Most items ship with free delivery confirmation, electronic tracking and jacket protectors (generally over $10.00) if applicable. Clean recycled packing material will be used when possible.
