This book won the John Burroughs Medal for natural history writing in 1953 (the year after Rachel Carson won it for *The Sea Around Us*). Green cloth with blue top stain. A very good book with clean cloth boards, gently rubbed at edges, and faint foxing to outer text block edge and FFEP. Bookplate belonging to J Benton Schaub also on FFEP below Klingel's signature. In a very good jacket with edge wear and very short tears at spine corners.
