A 2nd print (stated on the front flap of the DJ) of one of Gardner's early accounts of his travels in Mexico - in this case Baja California. Illustrated with numerous B&W photographs. Beige cloth boards with gold lettering and decoration. The corners of the front flap of the DJ are clipped however the $5.00 price is present. The front panel of the DJ presents well however there is loss all along the top edge of the rear panel that ranges from 2.375" to 1" at the top of the spine. There is also a 2" x .25" piece missing from the center of the left spine hinge and loss at the tips of the flap folds. The internals are clean and tight with minimal wear. A very good book with a presentable but flawed DJ.
