The most comprehensive bibliography done of the literature of Yosemite, the High Sierra, and the big trees. In this work will be found a diversity of material, including "individual books, pamphlets, brochures, leaflets, broadsides, advertising cards, trade cards, and maps, as well as several letter sheets and printed views" (n.b., quote from the prospectus). A joint work by the renowned authors Lloyd W. Currey and Dennis G. Kruska, this bibliography is the culmination of thirty years of research, collecting, and annotating Sierra Nevada material. ___DESCRIPTION: Quarter navy blue cloth with grey paper over boards, grey endpapers, colour frontispiece of "Item Number 307", title page in blue and black with small line-drawn illustration, volume replete with black-and-white illustrations of various items; quarto size (11 1/4" by 8 3/4"), pagination: [1-6] 7-233 [1, colophon], one of 300 copies (unnumbered).
