Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Near fine. Bound in publisher's cloth. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. Dust jacket in protective mylar cover. Volume 43. The Rivers of America was conceived by Constance Lindsay Skinner. Skinner envisioned the series: "This is to be a literary and not a historical series. The authors of these books will be novelists and poets. On them, now in America, as in all lands and times, rests the real responsibility of interpretation. If the average American is less informed about his country than any other national, knows and cares less about its past and about its present in all sections but the one where he resides, it is because books prepared for his instruction were not written by artists." The series was widely popular and was extended to 65 volumes over 37 years.
