The 1st. US edition of this early and important hunting title. 8vo. 397pp. with 2pp. of adverts at the rear. Frontispiece portrait of Baldwin with tissue guard, folding map and numerous full page and in text illustrations. In the original reddish-brown blind-stamped decorated cloth.
An about very good copy. There is some fraying of the cloth at the extremes of the spine. The rear joints are starting to crack at the top and bottom but the book is still tight and the inner hinges and endpapers are intact. There is a small ownership sticker at the top of the front pastedown. Internally the book is clean and totally lacking in foxing. The folding map has a 4cm. irregular tear at the bottom (see image).
