About this Item

Book size about 6 1/2 by 9 inches with some 392 pages including an extensive Index. Bound in black cloth with blind stamped borders, gilt logo of Academy on front cover and gilt spine lettering. Illustrated with a few drawings and with six plates at the rear concerning the Truxilinae (Grasshopper) family. To my mind perhaps the most important article in this volume is 'Bibliography of Iowa Antiquities'--a 25 page listing of books in this category. Other articles covering the Truxilinae (Grasshoppers); Mexican shell gorget; Arkansas grooved rocks; Buddhism in America; Chas. Christopher Parry; Stone Mounds and serpent of South Dakota; proceedings of the Society, etc. Book with damp stain evidence at the very front spine bottom area; spine chipped at top/bottom. Clean and tight. GOOD Language: eng Language: eng 0.0 Language: eng Language: eng Language: eng.
