TALES OF QUAILS N SUCH BY HAVILAH BABCOCK 1951 2ND PRINTING DJ REVIEW COPY. Quoting from the flap of the dust jacket: It is highly doubtful whether there is a sportsman alive who derives more pleasure from hunting and fishing than Havilah Babcock. Certainly, few have his happy faculty for being able to share with fellow sportsmen the joy of sports afield which he imparts through his witty pen. I am very pleased to be able to offer a nice copy of a much sort-after book about hunting & fishing titled: Tales of Quails N Such A Collection of Hunting and Fishing Stories by Havilah Babcock. This medium-sized hard cover book (6 ¼ x 9 ¼ inches 237 pages) was published by the Greenberg Publisher of New York as a part of their Gun Room Library. It is dated December 1951 and is the Second Printing of the First Edition (so stated) and is also a review copy as demonstrated by the Publisher s Review Post Card laid-in. Illustrations for each story have been prepared specially for this book by the well-known artist William J. Schaldach. The book is bound in pale green cloth with a dark green cloth spine and gilt titles. The top edge of the pages is dyed dark green and the book is protected by a pictorial dust jacket. Condition: This book is in very good condition. The dust jacket has some edge wear especially along the top edge where there are small chips and tears. There is also a swath of finish removed from the front cover (please see the photos). The hard covers are clean and bright and barely bumped and the gilt titles on the spine still bold and handsome. Inside the book is unmarked and the pages are clean and bright throughout. Both hinges are intact, and the binding is tight and sound. This book is not ex-library or a remainder.…
