RAWLINGS, MARJORIE KINNAN

The Yearling Scribner's Classic Illustrated Edition

B&W and Color Illustrations; This book is in Near Fine condition This is an early trade edition of a Scribner's Illustrated edition that came in an edition limited to 770 copies. The trade edition came with a paper box and a full size pictorial pastedown on the front cover. This copy is in Very Good++ condition and was apparently issued without a dust jacket.

There is a previous owner's bookplate on the front pastedown page. Included are 12 full color, full page illustrations by N. C. Wyeth. "Young Jody Baxter lives with his parents, Ora and Ezra "Penny" Baxter, on a small farm in the animal-filled central Florida backwoods in the 1870s. His parents had six other children before him, but they died in infancy, which makes it difficult for his mother to bond with him. Jody loves the outdoors and his family. He has wanted a pet for as long as he can remember, but his mother says that they barely have enough food to feed themselves, let alone a pet. A subplot involves the hunt for an old bear named Slewfoot that randomly attacks the Baxter livestock. Later the Baxters and the rowdy Forresters get in a fight about the bear and continue to fight about nearly anything. (While the Forresters are presented as a disreputable clan, the disabled youngest brother, Fodder-Wing, is a close friend to Jody. ) "(from Wikipedia). Very Good+ .

Réaumur was a prolific scientist and intellectual who, though best known as an entomologist, made contributions across many disciplines, including geometry, meteorology, physics, and botany. These volumes represent the arrival in the Netherlands of a decisive advance in the economics of animal husbandry: accompanied by precise diagrams, Réaumur outlines how to leverage heat produced by various sources (e.g. fire, manure) to hatch and raise domestic fowl in all seasons.B0875Eerste Nederlandse handboek voor kunstmatige inseminatie van eieren - broeden - uitbroeden - entymologie - veeteelt - kippenhouderij - natuurlijke historie

RODDEN, John

The Politics of Literary Reputation. The Making and Claiming of 'St. George' Orwell

Oxford University Press, Oxford University Press. 1989, xiii,478pp. Illustrated. Cloth. Dust jacket with signs of use. Book in good condition. "This is a fascinating study - part biography, part cultural history - about George Orwell and his literary reputation. No one gained such sudden fame as Orwell did in the United States after publication of his two most important works, "Animal Farm" and "1984". In addition, no contemporary literary figure has continued to have such a strong reputation for such a long time. Rodden's book is partly about the nature of literary reputations how they are established and maintained. But more important is the question of Orwell's career and influence how he has been perceived and adopted by political factions from left to right; the development of his literary career, and the immense influence he has had in the United States.".
