London. Jonathan Cape. 1934. First Edition. Octavo (8 x 6). 257 pp. Roderick Haig-Brown's compelling story of a Vancouver Island cougar; it's one of the finest animal biographies published. The 1934 British Panther is a rare book. You will see dozens of copies of the first American edition of the same book, titled Ki-yu: A Story of Panthers, before you'll encounter the first U. K. Panther (and Ki-yu is by no means a common book, published in Boston in 1934). Panther was published two weeks before Ki-yu, and it's by far the most difficult of Haig-Brown's books to to locate. There's no record at Harold Ober and Associates (Haig-Brown's literary agent) in New York showing the number of copies sold. The book is bound in green cloth with yellow titles on the spine and front cover. The dust jacket is printed in black and yellow. The book is clean and very good in a near very good dust jacket with age toning and a chip at the head of the spine panel.
