NY: Review of Reviews, 1903. First Edition. Soft cover. Very Good. Item #0411131
Royal 8vo original pictorial wraps. Approx 253pp. Illust. Ads. This monthly periodical of new books published by major publishers included about 125pp of scholarly articles written by various people, & columns on different subjects. This issue's primary articles were written about the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, with directly related material on the Lewis & Clark's expedition. It includes, for example, the article, "The Significance of the Louisiana Purchase" by Frederick Jackson Turner. Among the book ads was a small one on the just published trail herd classic, The Log of a Cowboy. Also material about Teddy Roosevelt & his written works. This journal must have been on every book collector's subscription list. Now a scarce collector's item & most likely overlooked in many Lewis & Clark collections. Vg.
