Hardcover. Condición: Good. No Jacket. Inez Haynes Irwin (1873-1970) was an American feminist author, journalist, member of the National Women's Party, and president of the Authors Guild. Many of her works were published under her former name Inez Haynes Gillmore. She wrote over 40 books and was active in the suffragist movement in the early 1900s. Her 15-book "Maida" series of children's books was written over a period of 45 years and tells the stories of a schoolgirl whose mother has died and whose father is very wealthy. Book 1 in series, Maida's Little Shop (1909, but 53 editions), is a gentle story with a delightful little girl heroine and lovable characters. Maida is a sweet little girl whose father is one of the richest men in America. She is pale, listless and lame. Her father buys her a small shop in Charlestown, Massachusetts in the hope that this will give her an interest and help restore her health. His only requirement is that she not tell anyone who she is or who her father is. Maida makes friends for the first time in her life who see her only as an ordinary girl. ii + 294 + 6pp of ads. Book 3 in series, Maida's Little School (1926), dreading the coming of school days, Maida's father promises the children a new kind of school. ii + 246 + 6pp of ads. Pelagie Dorothy Doane Hoffner(1906-1966) was an American illustrator during the 1930s into the 1960s for children's books. She illustrated many volumes in the Judy Bolton series, as well as The Magic Makers series written by Margaret Sutton. Doane also illustrated volumes in the Melody Lane series by Lillian Garis, and many other books. Her signature is on the frontis of Maida's Little Shop (13th printing in 1931 through Grosset & Dunlap?). Nora Benjamin Kubie (1899-1988) was an American writer, artist and amateur archaeologist. Born Eleanor Gottheil, she attended Vassar College, graduating in 1920. She began her literary career writing nautical stories and juvenile novels, later focusing on Jewish historical fiction and archaeology. As an artist, she illustrated many of her juvenile books.

Hardcover. Condición: Fair. 2006 Springer hardcover edition. Ex library copy with stamps and labels else good condition. From the cover: In this comprehensive volume, written by experts in the field, information gathered on lemur ecology and adaptation over the past 15 years is presented by both seasoned and newer lemur researchers and provides us with further knowledge concerning both well-studied and rarely studied extant species, as well as insights into the ecology and adaptation of some of the recently extinct lemurs. With the dramatic increase in behavioral and ecological studies on a great variety of lemur species in the past few decades, our knowledge concerning the adaptation of these charming primates to Madagascar's unpredictable and sometimes harsh environmental conditions has improved significantly. Lemurs: Ecology and Adaptation will be a useful and fascinating source book for researchers and students of primate ecology.
