Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Second edition, revised and augmented. This title is one of the important books in the Zamorano Eighty list of books on California and the American West. Octavo rebound in library-type, green buckram. B&W illustrations. Condition: rebound in a pretty clunky binding, but judging from the absence of library markings, was probably done as a utilitarian measure. The binding is rubbed & a bit worn; there is a previous owner's inked and phone number on the 1st free endpaper and above that is the rubber-stamp of an old L. A. bookshop that's no longer in business. Endpapers are toned. Otherwise, this a good, tight, and very serviceable copy. Pages: xxxiii, 732.
