About this Item

This book is straight and tight with library tape marks on boards, some stamps, sleeve on back free endpaper and minimal to moderate edgewear. The jacket has some fraying esp. at spine but only a few minimal tears and is how in protective cover. Howard Pease is most well-known for his books featuring the adventures of a young Tod Moran. Pease tried to write more realistic books for children especially young boys who were not often represented in children?s novels. He had a depth of unrecognized social commentary, and his novels hold up well in the present day. The story is of a young Don Carter searching for his geologist father lost in the New Guinea interior. Proceeds from the sale of this book benefit environmental restoration and education.
