Hard Back. Condizione: Very Good. No Dust Jacket. First Printing Stated. 246 Pages. Tan cloth with white lettering to the spine and impressed into the front board the author's last name. Laid in (pasted) are two clippings. One with his photograph that appears to be somewhat of an obituary. The other clipping is a short description of the present book. In and out of these essays wanders The Man with the Calabash Pipe, a sardonic bachelor who refused to light his heater since a likeable mouse is in residence underneath it. His aged friend the Horned Husband Kachina Chief is another recurring character, a walking embodiment of an Indian sense of humor. But the important person is Oliver La Farge himself, talking as if with a friend about the things that concern him most.
