A propos de cet article

Reno, Nevada: University of Nevada Press, 1998. New and unread in a New dust jacket. PERFECT condition. STILL SEALED in the publisher's clear plastic shrinkwrap. Sharp corners. Square and tight. Pages are fresh, crisp, clean and unmarked -- obviously never read. Bound in the original white cloth. From the publisher: "How did an Illinois Methodist homesteader in the West come to create one of the most significant cosmological syntheses in American literature? In this study, Hoyer draws on his own knowledge of biblical religion and Native American cultures to explore Austin's creation of the 'mythology of the American continent' she so valued. Austin lived in and wrote about 'the land of little rain,' semiarid and arid parts of California and Nevada that were home to the Northern Paiute, Shoshone, Interior Chumash, and Yokut peoples. Hoyer makes new and provocative connections between Austin and spiritual figures like Wovoka, the prophet of the Ghost Dance religion, and writers like Zitkala-sa and Mourning Dove, and he provides a particularly fine reading of Cogowea.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. NEW condition/New dust jacket. Illus. by SEALED in publisher's clear plastic shrinkwrap. Unknown page count (still in shrinkwrap). Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.…

Description de la boutique

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
