Description: Abbey, Edward - The Journey Home - E.P. Dutton: New York, 1977 - First Edition / First Printing - Complete number line, starting with “1”, present on the copyright page as required in order to denote the first printing of the first edition. “We always used to think it didn’t matter, that when you mined out one area, or farmed it out, or overgrazed it, you could move to new country beyond the hills, keep moving West. But there are no new places to go anymore. The land is full. We have to stay where we are, take care of what we have. There isn’t going to be anything else.” The book has trace shelf wear and some scattered spotting to the edges of the block but is otherwise very well kept with clean straight boards, tight binding, and no markings internally. The dust jacket has some very minor soiling and a small circular punch on the front flap but is otherwise likely a near fine copy with no serious short comings to make any note of. A rather beautiful copy of important work of conservation and the American Southwest. Increasingly tough to locate in this condition. All books are offered with a full 30 day postage paid return policy. All books which are in dust jackets will be mailed with a clear archival dust jacket protector fitted. Shipping costs can be combined if multiple purchases are made. Items will be packaged and shipped within one business day unless otherwise noted. Please always feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
