New York, E.P. Dutton, 1936. First Edition. Hardcover. Size: 8vo 8" - 9" tall. A perfectly serviceable reference copy; nothing fancy, but complete and sturdy. Bound in the original publisher's purple cloth, bumping to spine head and tail, a bit of wear to and discoloration of top and bottom edges, else clean of interior. Top-stained in red. Bright and shiny dust jacket, illustrated, showing moderate wear but mostly in the form of furling to flap inside, being price-clipped, protected by a plastic coat. A rousing tale of early California featuring the Father Pedro Lacey and his trials and tribulations among Mexican heathens. Predictably patronizing and ethnically bigoted.
