Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, spine faded, rough cut, deckle page fore edges as issued, not price clipped (£17.99), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 249pp. As he ranges across the West, the author of this book shows not just the present day world of affluent skiers in Aspen, impoverished Indians and the ghost towns and silver mines of Colorado, but also shows us the lands' history, like the Conquistadores and their futile search for El Dorado.
