Collector’s Note
This is a pleasing old reading copy rather than a fine collectible copy. Its appeal is in the illustrated cover, 1908 copyright, classic adventure subject matter, and illustrator connection. A nice shelf piece for collectors of early outdoor fiction, river/logging stories, or N. C. Wyeth-related illustrated books.
A rugged old river tale with honest age, bold cover art, and plenty of early 1900s character—one copy, sold and gone.
