ROOSEVELT, Theodore (Teddy). THE WILDERNESS HUNTER. AN ACCOUNT OF THE 
BIG GAME OF THE UNITED STATES AND ITS CHASE WITH HORSE HOUND, AND RIFLE. 
New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons, (1893). Reprint. Original buckram with 
printed paper label on spine; xiv, 472 pages. The Presidential Edition; 
illustrated with a frontispiece plate and drawings at the chapter heads 
and tails. This copy INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author as President on 
the front free endpaper: "To/Master Roger Shaw/from a fellow lover of 
nature/Theodore Roosevelt/June 15th 1908." Tipped to the front pastedown 
is a 1908 a TYPED LETTER SIGNED (TLS) from a Secretary to the President, 
on White House stationery, enclosing this book. Tipped to the rear 
pastedown is a 1939 TYPED LETTER SIGNED (TLS) from Eleanor Roosevelt 
(addressed to the same recipient) on White House stationery giving 
thanks for sympathy expressed over the death of Roosevelt's nephew. 
Teddy Roosevelt's inscription is blotchy, particularly the word 
"Theodore," but is still quite attractive. Front hinge is cracked but 
tight; the spine label is tanned and scuffed with mild soiling to the 
covers. Very Good. (#013877)        $3,000.00
