Scribners, 1898. hardcover. Good. 0x0x0. Unmarked hardcover no jacket. Grosset & Dunlap on title page Scribner's on copyright page. Profusely illustrated. Original 1898 printing. Wear at tips of spine.

No dust jacket. A former library book, where the spine was once repaired with librarian's tape, as can be seen in photo #2. The only date on the copyright page is of the original Scribner edition, as is common with Grosset & Dunlap books of that era. A pencil notation on the dedication page gives the date of 6/6/1924, which is probably close to the actual publication date. This book consists of eight short stories giving fictionalized accounts of the lives of different animals the author once knew. The red fabric covering the boards is well worn, with the boards showing through at all the corners and half the edges. The librarian added fabric tape at the hinges of the endpapers, front and rear, which is holding the binding quite secure. The pages are tight and unmarked, with page 19-20 repaired by some quite old tape (still secure). Soiling to a few of the pages. Illustrated with 200 drawings by the author, once the Naturalist to the Government of Manitoba. This book is rather rare and seems suitable… Read More

David Nutt, 1905. Good/No dustjacket. Spine cocked, else a good, solid copy. A collection of riveting stories about creatures great and small from Ernest Thompson Seton, the creator of realistic wild-animal fiction. Ernest Thompson Seton’s Wild Animals I Have Known, published in 1898, was a transformative masterpiece that not only dramatically shifted the perspective of writers and readers alike, but also changed Seton himself. Through the fateful encounter with the wolf Lobo, Seton became a dedicated wildlife protector, individualizing animals and exploring their motivations, feelings, and personalities. This publication would soon contribute to the conservationist movement of the twentieth century and establish Seton as a pivotal naturalist within our history. Experience Seton’s transformation with the stories of Lobo and other creatures in his words and captivating art, and reconnect with the beauty of the wild and the interconnectedness of man and nature.… Read More
