Hardcover. Condition: Near fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. First edition. An association copy, inscribed in the year of publication on the front free endpaper: "For Archer Fullingim: Maybe a few of us who care can set down some of these things on paper while they're still here to be set down. I know you've done so, and b…eautifully. With warm best wishes--John Graves, April 1976." Fullingim (see his biography from the Texas State Historical Association) was a journalist and newspaper publisher, starting the little Koutze Newsfrom which he held forth as if with a bullhorn; he is described as "Texas's most outspoken Liberal newspaper editor," and his columns were often reprinted in the state's larger newspapers. He was also a staunch environmentalist, leading the charge especially for saving the Big Thicket forest in Texas from logging, a campaign that resulted in the Big Thicket National Preserve in 1975. He asked that his tombstone read: "His favorite Kountze news story for twenty-five years was the Big Thicket." John Graves is best known for Goodbye to the River, but Hard Scrabble, his second book, is his memoir of the ecology and life on his ranch (which he dubbed Hard Scrabble) and "his gradual commitment to to this countryside." A very good book with a little nudging to spine ends and a few light spots to the cloth; a few faint stains to FFEP and one dog-eared page where Fullingim kept returning to a map of the ranch. In a very good jacket with a prominent crease down the spine and some creasing to flaps. A wonderful association between Texas conservationist writers.
