This work is the (mostly) true story of a young man who left his boyhood home in the state of Maine, traveled with a circus from coat to coast and then settled in the desert-mountain area of the southwestern United States, namely the Coachella Valley in California. It is a saga of the struggles of one man to wrest a living from the seething desert, the earth's underground treasures, and finally from the soil, sun and water available in the area. Photographs and illustrations are included. Limited Edition. Shelfwear and chipping to the jacket; otherwise, this HARDCOVER copy is clean and solid. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, inscribed on the FFEP.
