Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 1st printing. 312pp. Corners a little bumped, sl soil. Former owner's name on ffep, as well as a bookplate that says "From one delighted owner of an American Timber Home -- the author -- to another. Robert Traver (John Voelker)" The name of the recipient is written on, but I'm pretty sure the author's signature is printed onto the bookplate. There is a small mar on pages 10 and 11 where something stuck the 2 pages together. It's a little bit smaller than an M&M, and the corresponding spot on pages 9 and 12 are a bit darkened there. It is what it is. Did Robert Traver live in an American Timber Home? He must have.
