Description:
New York: Lupton Publishing. In Very Good condition. Imitation half-bound burgundy cloth. The spine is stamped in gilt. Top-edge gilt. 203pps. There is mild rubbing to the cloth and modest wear to the tips and the spine-ends. The binding is slightly shaken, though sound, with all pages intact. Also, the bottom corner of some pages are crimped. This volume is undated, however -- according to the publisher's address on the title-page (Nos. 72 - 76 Walker St) -- it would have been published between 1894 -1899 (the only years Lupton did business at that address). A nice copy. With notes by Joseph Devey, M.A. Purchase with confidence: all books, gradings, and descriptions are rendered the care of a genuine bibliophile. Satisfaction guaranteed or all costs you've incurred will be refunded. Thanks for your interest in Nooks Of Books. . FRANCIS BACON ESSAYS NONFICTION. Catalogs: NonFiction.

But the rugged beauty of the park and the mystery of the Anasazi are cruelly overshadowed by danger and death. An unusually high number of medical…
