The first 5 volumes with frontispieces, decorative initials, and illustrations drawn by Richard Bunse. The initials were hand colored by Marion Cluff and gold foil stamped at the press. Roderick Haig-Brown arrived in the Nimpkish Valley in 1927. "He logged, surveyed, beachcombed and set out to learn to fish the Pacific Northwest coast. But, more more than anything, it was here that Haig-Brown would mature as a writer. His five diaries of the early years of North America from 1927-1929 and 1932-1933 reveal the freshness and immediacy of evolving genius that culminates in classic works like A River Never Sleeps, a book deeply informed by the period of these diaries." The spines of first five volumes are bound in forest green Harmatan goat skin and the boards of each volume bound in different colors of textured paste paper, with each volume's number stamped in gilt on the spine. The sixth volume is bound in the same colored green cloth with a fish in gilt on the spine. The six volumes were bound by Sandy Tilcock. The books are kept in a light olive green cloth folding box with titling label; the box has a pull-out tray so that all volumes can easily slide in and out of the box; the fold-down front is kept in place by a magnetic closure at the top. The set was issued with four original and distinct prospectus' and they are present. A magnificent, elegant production. This is the real Cave A 203.
