About this Item
London. Jonathan Cape. 1934. First Edition. Octavo (8 x 5). 257 pp. Roderick Haig-Brown's compelling story of a Vancouver Island cougar, or mountain lion, Ki-yu . One of the finest animal biographies published. The 1934 British Panther is a rare book - and in this case this same book has come back to me after more than a decade since I sold it (by the way, handling the same book once every 10 years is a good way to define a rare book). The U. K. Panther first edition was published two weeks before the American edition titled Ki-yu was published in the states. There are two states of the binding in the 1934 Panther - the first in green cloth with yellow titles and the second, this one, bound in red cloth with black titles on the spine - it was issued in 1937 and was in print for a short period of time. White and yellow printed dust jacket. The book is very good (small stain on spine) in a near very good dust jacket with some soiling and a stain. Seller Inventory # 011136

Shipping Terms:
Orders usually ship within 2 business days. Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 LB, or 1 KG. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required. My chosen shipping option is the U. S. Postal Service. USPS is the best in terms of service and cost efficiency ¿ even though recent overseas rates, effective January 2013, have skyrocketed. USPS requires mails sent overseas and Canada can ONLY be sent by AIRMAIL. Charged at actual cost. Other overseas shipping options are available, such as UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc.; however, they are frightfully expensive.
