DIFFERENT DJ than MAIN Light brown background w/ purple and orange printing fore-ground. STATED FIRST EDITION. Sept. 1971 Atlantic/Little/Brown hardcover, Carleton S. Coon (A North Africa The Anthropologist as OSS Agent 1941-1943). Ten thousand years ago, before agriculture and husbandry, all men lived by the spear and arrow. Some men still do the hunting people.
