About This Item

New York: Abbeville Press, 1992. A gorgeous, pristine copy. Bright, clean, square, tight, and unmarked. Dust Jacket is not price clipped (10.95). No chips. No tears. No creases. Not a book club edition. No remainder marks. No owner's name or bookplate. Sharp corners. Fresh and crisp. Illustrated with photos throughout. Bound in the original glossy pictorial boards, with matching Dust Jacket. From the Dust Jacket: "Snakes and dogs, tigers and jackasses, they've all lived in the White House -- most of them unelected. From George Washington, who lavished attention on a genetically superior mule, to George Bush and his best-selling media hound Millie, American presidents and their families have displayed a peculiarly American soft spot for their furry friends. In this bipartisan story of First Family fauna, we meet Thomas Jefferson's revered mockingbird Dick, Ulysses Grant's Civil war mount Jeff Davis, Teddy Roosevelt's one-legged chicken... everything from cats and dogs to a pigmy goat to a snarling bobcat." Appendix: List of Pets [from Alligator (John Q. Adams) to Wallaby (Calvin Coolidge)]. Index. . First Printing (so stated). Hard Cover. As New condition./As New dust jacket.. 108pp..

About About Books

About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
