Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Near fine hardcover in rubbed dust jacket. First Edition. With 24 color plates and 15 black-and-white drawings by Ray Harris-Ching, plus historical paintings, photographs, and maps. This is a definitive work on a family of birds at once so familiar and yet little known. Only on the islands of New Zealand are these ancient and curious birds found, and this book brings together much that has been learned since their earliest sightings to the present time. The authors are eminently suited to this task, and the series of paintings and drawings by Ray Harris-Ching reveal kiwis in original and unexpected ways. The book is founded on an enormous amount of research and field trips, and describes in detail the way of life, habitats, and visual characteristics of kiwis, as well as offering a history of the bird's importance to the Maori and its place as a symbol of great affection in the hearts of New Zealanders. Altogether, some 75 illustrations add immeasurably to this instructive and beautiful book.

Der Einband etwas aufgehellt, leicht fleckig und angerändert, Papier altersgemäß nachgedunkelt, auf Titelblatt Lichtschatten des dort einliegenden Verlagspapiers (Werbung für die 99 signierten Exemplare), ebenso auf Nachsatz, Der Einband aus der unteren Klammer gelöst, ansonsten altersentsprechend rundum guter Zustand dieser Rarität aus Lowrys "Little Man Press" William Saroyan (* 31. August 1908 in Fresno, Kalifornien; ? 18. Mai 1981 ebenda) war ein US-amerikanischer Schriftsteller. Saroyan war einer der wichtigsten US-amerikanischen Schriftsteller des 20. Jahrhunderts. Neben der Mitarbeit an Drehbüchern schrieb er weiterhin Prosa und Theaterstücke, die vor allem während der Weltwirtschaftskrise in den 1930er Jahren populär waren. Seine Geschichten handelten meist über das Aufwachsen als Sohn armenischer Einwanderer. Der Schriftsteller Robert Lowry (* 29. März 1919 in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA; ? 5. Dezember 1994 ebenda) wurde mit dem von ihm begründeten Little Man Magazin und seinen Werken wichtiger Inspirator und Quelle der amerikanischen Nachkriegsliteratur und der Beat Generation. Bereits als Kind schrieb Lowry angeregt von Pulp-Magazinen der Depressionszeit Kurzgeschichten, die in der lokalen Presse veröffentlicht wurden. Als Student der University of Cincinnati gründet Lowry 1938 das Literaturmagazin Little Man. Bevor das erste Heft im Druck erscheint, begibt sich Lowry zusammen mit einer verheirateten Kommilitonin on the road quer durch die USA. Über Arkansas und Texas trampt er alleine weiter nach New York, wo er sich als Schriftsteller etablieren möchte. Fast verhungert kehrt er wenige Monate später wieder nach Cincinnati zurück, bricht sein Studium ab und gründet mit einer gebrauchten Handpresse den Little Man Verlag, indem fortan das gleichnamige Magazin erscheint.
