About this Item

This Fine quality third printing 167 page book was published by G. P. Putnam & Sons in 1926. It is square, very clean, free of corner bumps and edge dings; the head and heel of the spine are very lightly creased with no fabric damage, not even any color loss; the bottom edges and both bottom corners have only a very slight amount of wear. Both hinges are strong, undamaged and intact. The interior is completely free of writing, stray marks, stains of any sort and paper damage of any type. The paper has very slight toning and is quite flexible. There are numerous photographs interspersed with the text. The VG+ quality jacket has no tears and is very lightly soiled with very tiny chips at both top corners and at the head of the spine (see photos). It also has an undamaged 2-3/4" orange band that advertises David's earlier book; apparently,this band is a very rare commodity. This is one of a series of books published by Putnam in the 1920's and 1930's written by teen-aged boys going on amazing adventures all over the world. They are, invariably, rather good reading and are well illustrated with photographs. In this book, David, 13 years old, describes his experiences on the American Museum's Greenland Expedition.
