CRUISINGS IN THE CASCADES. A NARRATIVE OF TRAVEL,
EXPLORATION, AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHY, HUNTING
AND FISHING...

by G.O. Shields.
Chicago & New York; Rand, McNally & Company: 1889. First edition.

The author of "Rustlings in the Rockies", "Hunting in the Great
West" and "The Battle of the Big Hole" takes on the Cascades.
The book includes "special chapters on hunting the grizzly bear,
the buffalo, elk, antelope, rocky mountain goat, and deer; also
on trouting in the Rocky Mountains; on a Montana round-up;
life among the cowboys, etc."

Hardcover. 6.5"x9", 339 pages, + 12 pages of advertisements
for guns, cameras and other outdoor gear; beautiful brown and
gold pictorial covers, illustrating an elk; a scuff to the rear cover,
and a very small one to the front, tips bumped, but the striking
covers are essentially in brilliant condition; contents clean and
nice, the main fault in this copy being the fact that some of
the signatures are partially pulled. [01161] $250.00
