About This Item
This is a first edition of The Great Lakes, written by the famed Canadian journalist and historian Pierre Berton (1920-2004). It was published in 1996 and includes hundreds of photographs by the Canadian photographer Andre Gallant.
It is a historical overview, paired with brilliant photography showing the diversity of landscapes, species, and seasons. It is colored by Berton's personal opinions about war, industry, and the environment and is an engrossing read.
Unclipped dust jacket.
There is a little bit of damage to the paper on the spine, one corner of the front cover, and the first front endpaper (see photos).
Otherwise perfect condition. Lovely book.
Note: If you are outside of North America, the quoted shipping price is for surface mail without tracking. For other options, please contact me.
