NY, Thomas Y. Crowell, (1960). The author's second book, a novel. His first, Cat Man, won the Houghton Mifflin Literary Fellowship Award. Hoagland has since become most well-known for his essays, particularly on natural history; John Updike called him the finest essayist of his generation. Pages unevenly browning with age, as two different paper stocks were used in production; trace foxing to the top edge; otherwise a fine copy in a very good dust jacket with a bit of wear at the crown and the edges.
