Author: HUBBARD, Gurdon Saltonstall Title: The Autobiography of Gurdon Saltonstall Hubbard
Description: Chicago, R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, 1911. Hardcover. Introduction by Caroline M. McIlvaine. 16mo. Green cloth with gilt spine lettering, rules and device. xxvii, 182pp. Top edge gilt. Tissue-guarded captioned frontispiece. Very good. Mild edgewear, though internally fine. First of this edition following the 1888 true first edition of the Chicago pioneer and fur trader (1802-86). Tight, attractive copy of this early "Lakeside Classic," the annual keepsake given by this printer and publisher to friends and clients starting in 1903. Early Lakesides from their "green period" -- the first thirty years -- have become quite scarce in recent years. Hubbard's is a classic account of the early Northwest and the Chicago area. .
