Black Range Tales by James McKenna
First published in 1936, Black Range Tales has become one of the classics of southwest Americana. In
his inimitable style, “Uncle Jimmie” tells of prospecting, Indian fights, exploration, town life and all the
characters from the early days of the Black Range, the
Mogollons, and the rest of the Gila Country of southwest New Mexico. The result is alternately humorous,
poignant, amazing or insightful; a singular look at the
times. And most of all these tales are true, for by golly,
James A. McKenna was there.

MEET MR. GRIZZLY
A Saga on the Passing of the Grizzly Bear
This edition contains a new story by Stevens about an unforgettable Old West character. Called “Front Name Dick,” it’s
a classic tale of rough, frontier humor.
“Montague Stevens was much more than a one-armed British remittance man with a passion for bear hunting. Educated at Cambridge, he was one of the most literate chroniclers of New Mexico’s rural history. That he lived in a time
when grizzlies still roamed the wilds of southwest New

TRACKS ACROSS NEW MEXICO
BY HOMER C. PICKENS
Another hound classic back in print! Homer Pickens was one of the great houndmen of the
Southwest during the 20s, 30s, & 40s for bear and lion. He and his brother Albert also
trapped many wolves. Originally published in 1980, these are Pickens’ reminiscences of his
years tramping and riding across the state as an officer with the New Mexico Game & Fish
Department and other agencies. Homer rose from predator control officer to become Chief
Game Warden for the State of New Mexico. Homer Pickens was the man who took Smokey
the Bear, as a cub, to Washington after he was rescued from a forest fire in southern New
Mexico. This high quality, hardcover, reprint also includes an extensive Foreword by Homer
Pickens Jr. and is profusely illustrated with nearly 100 photographs.
Below: Don Robinson’s informal letter to his long-time associate Dr. David Narver, dated December 10, 2012 on his reading
of Tracks Across New Mexico by Homer C. Pickens. Robinson is the retired Director of the British Columbia, Fish and Wild“An interesting and informative record of a family and especially the author, Homer Pickens. Reading between the lines
one can chart the development of not only the New Mexico Game Department but the involvement of Federal Agencies concerned with wildlife. The change in attitude about predators over the course of the book is clearly outlined. Homer Pickens
tells his story as it intertwines with the emersion of a modern state wildlife agency. While it contains a personal history,
there is a great deal of material dealing with the changes in Federal/State agencies especially dealing with predator control.
Incidentally he mentions buying cougar (lion) dogs from the Lee Brothers of Arizona. My uncles on Vancouver Island also bought trained cougar hounds from the Lee Brothers–for the same reason–the dogs were well trained and the
bounty system was a much better go as income than depression wages. Same in British Columbia as New Mexico.
Homer Pickens was a hard worker, mild mannered and ready to move with the times. An excellent read outlining the
beginning of a broad approach by game departments as they transformed into wildlife agencies.” Signed by Don Robinson

WHEN THE DOGS BARK ‘TREED’ By Elliott S. Barker
In 1930 famed New Mexico houndman and game officer Elliot Barker spent a year hunting
an over-supply of lions on the half-million acre Vermejo Park Ranch. Using Airedales as
well as hounds, his story sticks to the facts yet is filled with high adventure, lion lore, and
savvy commentary on the vagaries of hounds on the trail. A classic now back in print, this
hardcover edition is the memoir of a literate man who rode alone over some of the most
rugged terrain in the Rockies, at ease with the perils of the trail, as one with his dogs when
the trail became a race to bring big cats to tree or bay.
“When the Dogs Bark ‘Treed’ reveals the point of view of a man alert to many things in
the big mountain country. It is the point of view of a civilized lover of the out-ofdoors.”~~~~ J. Frank Dobie

BEN LILLY’S TALES OF BEARS, LIONS AND HOUNDS Edited by Neil B. Carmony
Ben Lilly left behind enough writings to fill a book – and this is it! It includes Ben’s hunting diaries, his chapters on bears and lions, magazine articles, an interview, and personal
letters. Plus over 30 photos of Ben Lilly, many never before published. Known as “the last
of the mountain men,” Ben grew to legendary status in both the Old South and in the
Great Southwest. With careful, well researched annotations by editor Neil Carmony, Ben
Lilly’s Tales does much to separate the truth of Ben Lilly the man and hunter from the Lilly
legend. This book will be primary source material for anyone interested in one of the great
characters of Southern history, Western history, and the history of those hunters who
have followed big game with hounds.

S L A S H RAN C H H O UN D S
By Dub Evans
Everyone has their favorite among hounds and hunting books but Slash Ranch
Hounds is certainly among the best in any section. It is very strong on the intricate
workings of hounds in pursuit of scent. While not a “how-to” book, any dog man can
benefit from Evan’s training tips and hunting techniques, most told within the context of
stories. And Dub Evans was simply a good writer, who could render an exciting chase
that we can feel today without the need for tall tales and exaggerations. From long experience follow-ing the hounds horseback in wild country, he knew that an honest recall
of actual events was the best story of all.

HOUNDS in the HILLS
By EDWARD A. BRIGGS
Originally published in 1938, this lost classic is now back in print! A fine
writer, Briggs’ book ranks with The Voice of Bugle Ann; however, these are
true tales of superior hounds – Redbone, Black & Tan, Bluetik, Walker, July,
Beagle & Pot-licker – that run to catch on red fox and gray, ‘coon, ‘possum,
snowshoe hare and cottontail rabbit. Fifty years a houndman, Briggs’ Hounds
in the Hills brings you into the chase like no other book.

Triumph And Tragedy - A History of Thomas Lyons And the LCs
By Ida Foster Campbell with Alice Foster Hill
FROM HIS EARLY BEGINNINGS AS A COWBOY and self-taught mining engineer in the 1870s, Thomas Lyons -- with partner Angus Campbell -- would build
an unparalleled cattle empire in southwest New Mexico. According to a livestock
trade journal of the time, at its peak the LC Ranches controlled 1.5 million acres
of range, grazed some 60,000 cattle, “and employed 100 wagons, 750 riding
horses, 400 work horses, and 75 cowboys in season.” But powerful men create
powerful enemies. The murder of Tom Lyons in El Paso in 1917 remains one of
the great unsolved mysteries of the old Southwest. A man of myth until now, this
thoroughly documented account is Tom Lyons and the LCs in history.
“He fought Apaches, hunted grizzly bears, chased down rustlers . . . and plotted the course of roads still traveled
today.”

DEATH ON THE GALLOWS
By West Gilbreath
Law and Disorder in the Land of Enchantment
In The Old West, execution was a common form of punishment, and until 1923 hanging
was the most common form of execution in New Mexico. Following exhaustive research of
newspaper accounts and other sources, former Las Cruces detective West Gilbreath has
documented New Mexico’s legal hangings, and a few illegal ones, to tell the story of how
dozens of hardened criminals, and perhaps a few innocents, were dropped from the gallows
and jerked to their final reward. The actual executions are presented in unvarnished form,
just as eyewitnesses and the newspapers of the time described them. Most interesting, the
crimes that led to the ultimate punishment are described in detail, providing a unique view
of law and disorder in the Land of Enchantment.
“Well it’s pretty damned rough to have to croak so soon, but a good many better men than I have gone the
same road and I guess I can stand it.” ― Last words of Richard Remine, hanged in Grant County in 1881
for beating his mining partner to death with a single-jack.

Hunting Grizzlys, Black Bear and Lions “Big-Time” on the Old Ranches
by Will F. Evans
Hounds and Hunters in Old West Texas and Southern New Mexico
One of the truly rare books of outdoor sport and Western Americana, Hunting Grizzlys, Black Bear and Lions is
herein available in an affordable reprint edition. Written by Will Evans and other members of the pioneer Evans
family, these first-hand memoirs offer a rare look at ranch life and big-game hunts in the Davis Mountains of West
Texas and the Gila region of southwest New Mexico, 1880s to 1920s. We read what is perhaps the only account on
record of the grizzly bear in Texas; another grizzly hunt, in New Mexico, goes on for days and takes hunters,
horses and hounds to the limit. Black bears, mountain lions, and outlaw cattle round out these authentic, unvarnished recollections.
Sadly, the grizzly is gone from the Southwest, and the black bear virtually gone from West Texas. Here are
the life, times and adventures when bears and panthers roamed “big-time” across the Southwest wilderness.

THE WOLF IN THE SOUTHWEST-The Making of an Endangered Species
David E. Brown, Editor
The premier predatory animal in the Southwest, and certainly the most controversial, the wolf came to grips with European settlement, particularly the livestock industry, and lost. First in Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, and finally in
Old Mexico, the southwestern wolf was driven to extirpation; ironically, the last wolves were hunted down not long
before the advent of laws—and a conservation ethic—that could have saved them. Drawing on reports of the U.S.
government’s former Office of Predatory Animal and Rodent Control (PARC), and from accounts of wolf hunters
themselves, David E. Brown has compiled the history of the wolf’s elimination. Included is a complete documentation
of the eradication program, fascinating stories of the last few wolves that eluded hunters, and information on wolf
biology from those who best knew its habits. Since its first publication in 1983, The Wolf in the Southwest has proven
itself as the single most valuable and informative reference to Canis lupus of the Mexican borderlands. Now, the descendents of the last wolves captured in Mexico once again roam portions of wilderness in New Mexico and Arizona.
With reintroduction, this second edition contains a new Preface and Epilogue by David E. Brown, and a new Foreword by author and biologist Harley Shaw. Once again there are wolves in the woods, and just as in the days of the
pioneers, people are taking sides. Love him or hate him, the wolf is again making history, and The Wolf in the Southwest is back in print.

Tales of the Chase By M.H. Salmon
Hound-Dogs, Catfish, and Other Pursuits Afield
A Literate, Thoughtful, and Sometimes Humorous Look at Running Dogs, Rural America, and Angling for Fishes Big and Small
In this collection of twenty essays and five pieces of short fiction. M.H. Salmon
recalls a life of sport in which he seldom casts a fly and rarely swings on a bird.
Instead, he roams the Southwest, Midwest, and the north woods in search of
what William Faulkner called “the ancient and unremitting context,” which is
the pursuit of game with hounds. Along the way he reflects on mountain men,
wilderness, urban blight, and hunting ethics; mules, trotline fishing and other
scenes in a vanishing rural America; and some great game fish, like Smallmouth
Bass, his “dream fish,” and the surprising catfish, which ultimately offers both a
lively challenge and a metaphor for life itself. Finally, in “Home with the
Hounds,” there is the all-day pursuit of a forty-pound Brush Wolf, and “the ambivalence any sentient hunter feels on killing an animal that has provided all you
could ever want of game.” Tales of the Chase is outdoor writing with a mainstream scope and offers up a whole platter of sport the Hook & Bullet press
never knew.

Forty Freedoms
By
M.H. Salmon
One hundred thousand acres of public land, complete with a year-round trout stream, potential ski resort, and butted
up against the burgeoning town of Del Cobre, New Mexico, is something the local boomers and
boosters – the “money men” -- can’t resist. Stuffed with dreams of growth and privatization, they
will stop at nothing to “add another room onto the house.” Others are equally committed to saving
these wild lands and waters from the roar of the bulldozer. Recalcitrant mountain man Harley Simmons (anti-hero of the previous Home is the River) teams with itinerant bookman and master polemicist Jason Niles (Signal to Depart) to make a desperate stand in the name of wild trout, resource
sustainability, and the heritage of the hunter. Narrated by Harley’s often beleaguered but always
clear-eyed son, Alvin, Forty Freedoms reads as a compelling campfire tale. In the tone of a latterday Huck Finn, his story of clashing cultures, animal rights fanatics and reluctant poachers, feral
hogs, hounds and hunting lore, and the fateful doings of an unfaithful woman, finally reveals what’s
really happening in the modern West.

By M.H. Salmon
Arriving in Southwest New Mexico, itinerant bookman Jason Niles finds the town of Del Cobre almost too good to
be true¾a community at ease with its modest size, rich in the heritage of an ancient culture, and uniquely in harmony
with the natural world. It is an idyll that cannot last. The boomers think Del Cobre holds a different promise. And
they have little sympathy for Mexican Black Hawks nesting on the edge of town, or the mysteries left behind by
ancient artists. You can see it coming. And so can Jason. Inspired, and deluded, by the Ancients’ lurid art, the books
in which he trades, and the woman of his dreams, Jason sees an opportunity to make a difference. If he can pull it off,
he can save remnants of a modern as well as an ancient culture, and even salvage something of himself.
“I got caught up in it, though I dreaded the ending which I knew was inescapable. Like everyday life here, it starts as a lark and
ends up somewhere near the roar of a bulldozer. Progress is our drug of choice, and so far no government has the guts to put a
warning label on the bottle.”

HOME IS THE RIVER
A Novel of the Wild
By M. H. Salmon
When Harley Simmons, “a latter-day mountain man, river rat and desert scoundrel,” returns from the wilderness to
the town of Del Cobre he is determined to come to terms with civilization and thereby restore his life and family.
Yet soon his life is in siege: his father, a legendary wilderness hunter, is dead; his wife will have nothing to do with
him; his son is protected from him by the courts; and government and the local boosters are closing in on New Mexico’s last wild river, threatening to cut deep into his wilderness home. In his attempts to accommodate civilization
with his own wild yearnings, Harley learns to pay dearly. Ultimately, a creature even more wild provides some
clues for resolution. Home is the River is a novel of the wilderness and a story from the heart of the great Southwest.
“Home is the River is a tale of adventure, a suspense story, a furious and funny portrait of good and evil at work amongst the modern Southwest men, women, and animals, written by a conservationist who believes that we can reconcile wilderness, endangered
predators, and the creed of the hunter.”

¡Gila Libre!
New Mexico’s Last Wild River
By M. H. Salmon
The story of a geographic anomaly that includes roughly four million acres of the nation's first designated wilderness area, New Mexico's largest national forest, and the state's only undammed river. Visitors might spot a beaver and a coatimundi on the same day, an elk and a javelina on the same hillside,
or catch a flathead catfish and a wild trout in the same pool. Apaches roamed along the Gila's shores,
as did mountain men and outlaws. It also tells the river's story to date, extolling what is still a unique
Southwest resource and speculating on its future, which includes the threatening proposal of a major
state and federal water project.

GILA DESCENDING-A Southwestern Journey
A Hound Dog, A Tomcat, and a Wild River By M. H. Salmon
Herein is the remarkable story of a 200-mile wilderness journey down the Gila River of New Mexico and
Arizona. Traveling partly on foot, mostly by canoe, the author was accompanied by a hound dog and a
tomcat. His trip is replete with whitewater thrills, and angling for trout, bass and catfish; ruminations on
the wilderness ethic, and the antics of two companions who promote all of humor, exasperation and love.
But besides being a modern day excursion into the natural world, Gila Descending is a personal odyssey
as well; and little by little that story, too, is told.
“...a delightful book. No reader could ask for a finer river to read about than the Gila, or a better companion to explore it with than M. H. Salmon. May the Government (ugh!) and God (we hope) long preserve
them both.”

Country Sports
Essays of Game, Fish, and the Rural Life
In its relatively short history, M.H. Salmon’s weekly Country Sports has won the “Best Column” award from the New Mexico Press Association, the New Mexico Press Women’s Association, and
the New Mexico Associated Press (twice). It is said he inspires many readers; others just get mad. A predictable result perhaps, when a writer fly fishes for wild trout one day, sets doughballs for carp the next;
blasts ORVs and defends rattlesnake roundups; takes a stand for the Mexican wolf while hitting the enviros for ignoring population growth in our own USA; joins the elite gunning doves with an Italian double,
then runs with the hounds hip by jowl as they take down a wild boar by tooth, nail, and a jackknife. As a
homesteader, he’ll help you make a crop during drought, live off the land with goats, and he reveals that
Abe Lincoln was perhaps our original American proponent of sustainable agriculture. Many believe that
the old rural ways are passing. Read Country Sports to know that their revival is well underway, not so
much a link to the past as a good plan for the future.

Ga zehounds & Coursing
By M.H. Dutch Salmon
This revised and expanded edition covers all the AKC sighthound breeds, plus the coldbloods, staghounds,
coyote hounds, lurchers, etc. From the farm fields of the Midwest through the wind-swept North Plains to
the desert Southwest, join the author on hunts for jackrabbits, coyotes, fox, and cottontails with a variety
of purebred and mixed-breed hounds. Meet some of the great old houndmen of the past and the legacy and
lore they left behind. Learn the technique of the trailhound/sighthound combination hunt. Gazehounds &
Coursing is provocative—the author blasts the anti-hunters, insists on a strong conservation ethic, and
says that some AKC breeds need an infusion of new blood to restore their working talents. Gazehounds &
Coursing is evocative—the author recounts great hounds he loved well who have crossed the great divide,
and game animals he wishes in retrospect had gotten away. Above all, Gazehounds & Coursing is informative—herein is the necessary methodology for choosing, raising, training, breeding, and running the
lithe and graceful “longdogs.”

:
A FISHERMAN’S AMERICAN JOURNEY BY M.H. SALMON
Based on a three-month, cross-country angling idyll, The Catfish As Metaphor reveals there is much to be learned from what is
arguably the most popular gamefish within the most popular outdoor sport in the country. For those eager with rod and reel, M.H.
Salmon fishes with some of the best catfishers in America, and passes along a variety of knowledge, lore, and techniques. But this
book reads more like a novel than a guide. Reaching back into a lifetime of fishing, the author recounts pike and bass from the
wilds of Canada, huge gator gar from the deep South, trout on a fly from the New Mexico mountains, and carp in Montana. Meanwhile, he critiques organic farming and agri-business, visits Wendell Berry and John Graves, blasts animal rights and political
correctness, and talks about women. There were “days when the Red Gods smiled, and all those others when they spit in your eye;
and, as age gathers in its middle years, the incoming fear that one is perhaps leaving too much slack in the line.” And through it all
he weaves the story of a father, the troubled tale of a uniquely American life, the man who would ultimately reveal to a son why
fishing is so important in our time “as possibly our last link with the eternal verities of nature and pursuit.” By the last cast, it’s
apparent that those who do not fish can catch as much from this book as any angler.
“The Catfish As Metaphor is a maverick, richly textured memoir of fishing, wandering, and life; it reminds us that all three are
best intertwined and best managed with passion and without pretension..”

PANCHO VILLA - Strong Man of the Revolution
By Larry A. Harris
Originally published as Pancho Villa and the Columbus Raid, Larry Harris’ interpretation captures the life of Villa
-- as bandit, revolutionary and military leader -- with the facts of history and the immediacy of on-the-spot journalism. This new edition contains an introductory essay by Andrew Gulliford, Fort Lewis College, Durango, Colorado, and an added portfolio of rare photographs from the Mexican Revolution.
“News that Larry Harris’ book is being reprinted is welcome indeed. His study, first published forty years ago, is clearly one of
the first serious monographs on the Columbus Raid. Furthermore, Harris is absolutely right about Villa being present at Columbus during the raid, a question which strangely continues to attract conspiracy theorists.”
Louis R. Sadler, New Mexico State University, co-author, The Border and the Revolution
“Harris’ text contains the urgency of truth, the flavor of folklore, and the sparkle of legend. It tells the story of a man who rose
against the bitter oppression of the Mexican caste system to become a leader who would hear the chant “Viva Villa!” echo off
crumbling adobe walls in dozens of poor villages where there had been no hope and no future. Villa promised both.”

Harvey Whitehill - Silver City Stalwart
By Bob Alexander, With an Introduction by Robert K. DeArment
THE LIFE AND TIMES OF A NEW MEXICO LAWMAN
With Silver City Stalwart, author Bob Alexander demonstrates not only that Harvey Whitehill was a major figure in the annals of the Old West, he shows as well that the Sheriff’s home ground of Silver City, in
Grant County, New Mexico, rivals Tombstone, Dodge City, and Deadwood as a hotbed of outlaw–
lawman history. A bull of a man, Whitehill literally pulled his own wagon on occasion. He also jailed
Billy the Kid, knew the infamous rustler John Kinney, lived through the Apache Wars, and beat Pat
Garrett at the polls. More detective than gunman, he solved the Gage train robbery. Built at the edge of
the Gila Wilderness, mining and cattle town Silver City needed a steady hand to guide it through its most
violent years. Harvey Whitehill was that central figure in the community through six terms as elected
sheriff.

lynch ropes & long shots
By Bob Alexander
With an Introduction by John D. Tanner, Jr.
The True Story of an Old West Train Robbery
In November, 1883, near a railroad siding called Gage in southwest New Mexico, four mounted outlaws derailed the
eastbound Southern Pacific, killed the engineer, and robbed the train and passengers of far less money than they had
hoped. The meager heist nonetheless set in motion one of the best Old West action yarns ever—and it’s all true!
Included with train robbery comes hard riding over rough country, hideouts in the wilderness, brilliant detective
work, not-so-brilliant detective work, a jail break, several shoot-outs on the run, more killings, on-the-spot lynchings, greed over the reward money, and the trial where the outlaw leader, the resilient Kit Joy, tries mightily to beat
the rope. Fast-paced and fully documented, former lawman Bob Alexander has once again given us important Western history that the others have missed.

Lawmen, Outlaws & S.O.Bs., Volume II
By Bob Alexander
Volume I of Lawmen, Outlaws and S.O.Bs. sold out in short order. The characters in Volume II are just as
tough, ornery, and contradictory, some wearing badges and going to jail all in one career. From the Ketchum
Brothers to Chico Cano, Frank Hamer, and the fighting Lopez Family of southern New Mexico, author Bob
Alexander gives us a fascinating array of gunmen, in the round, warts and all. With a lively style, strict documentation, and a sterling collection of old photographs, here is a gunfighters’ gallery from the Old Southwest.
“The second volume of Lawmen, Outlaws, and S. O. Bs. and its roundup of a number of the lesser known gunfighting men of the Old West is fascinating history. Many of the fellows profiled in these pages were lawmen, several
were outlaws—some were both—and no doubt a few were rightful heirs to the title S. O. Bs. None were boring.
By fair means or foul they have earned a place on the bookshelf.”

and the first American governor, who lost his scalp before his life. Living on the
edge of the northern frontier of New Spain, Taosenos became accomplished
smugglers of slaves, firearms and other black market goods. As a convenient
terminus of the Old Sante Fe Trail, Taos drew loitering rabble-rousers who
were overly fond of the dangerous hooch called Taos Lightning. In the twentieth century, a sleepy artists colony became a haven for a new kind of revolutionary, who dreamed of overthrowing bourgeois values. Paperback. New.

9781495431845. 6 x 9, 263 pgs, index, notes, bibliography, b&w historical
photos. Thomas Lyons, a prominent Grant County civic leader, owned a ranching enterprise spread over 1.5 million acres. He was murdered not long after
he arrived at Union Station in El Paso on May 17, 1917. Witnesses later said a
mystery man had met him at the train station._The author contends that the
case, one of the most sensational crimes in El Paso history, resulted in a gross
miscarriage of justice. T.J. Coggin, portrayed in newspapers as a wealthy El
Paso cattleman, and his younger brother, Millard Coggin, were indicted as codefendants, along with Felix Jones, identified as the hit man who killed Lyons.
Charges against the Coggin brothers were eventually dismissed and someone
bought Jones a pardon after he was sent to prison. The author suggests that
neither the press nor law officers at the time seemed to care that T.J. Coggin
and T.A. Morrison were at one time closely associated with Jim Miller, a notorious outlaw and killer who was lynched in 1909. The book identifies Morrison as
an unindicted co-conspirator in the Lyons case. Paperback. New. $25.00

investigations in California history. He also collected a wealth of action-packed,
suspenseful and often humorous true stories. He and his colleagues outsmarted game hogs, thwarted fish thieves, and foiled outlaws. He was even
stalked by African lions and mauled by a five-hundred pound Bengal tiger. One
of the most important cases of his career began with a slain bald eagle
dropped on the doorstep of the Fish and Game office, along with a note
threatening the life of a fellow warden. A decade later, Callan and his working
partner Dave Szody conducted an investigation which uncovered a statewide
criminal conspiracy to kill California black bears for their valuable gall bladders.

illustrations. Chronicles the story of Genevieve Jones, her family, and the making of an extraordinary nineteenth century book, "Illustrations of the Nests and
Eggs of Birds of Ohio". At the age of twenty-nine, Genevieve Jones, an amateur
naturalist/artist and daughter of a country doctor, visited the 1876 Centennial
World's Fair in Philadelphia, where she saw Audubon's paintings in Birds of
America on display. His artwork inspired her to undertake the production of a
book illustrating the bird's nests and eggs that Audubon neglected to include in
his work. Her parents were reluctant to support the undertaking of such an
ambitious and expensive project until Genevieve became despondent over a
broken engagement. Concerned over her fragile mental state, they encouraged
her to begin the book as a distraction. Her brother collected the nests and eggs,
her father paid for the publishing costs, and Genevieve and her girlhood friend
learned lithography and began illustrating the specimens. The book was sold by
subscription in twenty-three parts. Then, suddenly, Genevieve died of typhoid
fever after personally completing only five of the illustrations. Her family took
up the completion of the work in her memory. Only 90 copies of the book were
produced and fewer than 20 have been located today in libraries or in private
collections. Hardcover. Very Good+. $40.00
