238, [2] pages. Frontis. Illustrations. Nice inscription from author pasted inside front cover. Cover has some wear and soiling.Some page soiling. Also another notation from previous owner below the pasted inscription inside front cover, with mailing label pasted there as well. This was written following the retirement of the author from more than fifty years of activity as a country weekly newspaper editor and publisher, mainly to hold up he mirror and reflect to any who might be interested in the ways of life in such a line of work and in such an environment; especially to allow the reader to note the changes that have taken place in this span of four score years. The secondary purpose of this book was to record in a lasting way those data and incidents likely to be of most interest to family members, friends, and acquaintances and 'to such of his posterity as may care for such a record". A third reason --or excuse --for this publication is to gratify the writer's innate love of writing. With the limited edition issued--most of which will be given to those likely to be interested--there is no possibility of its being other than a 'labor of love'. Stated by author as a Limited Edition but no total number given. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 74220
