Description :

Client's father was a big game hunter from Alaska who hunted in the Americas and Asia. These are from his reference collection. See photos to judge condition for yourself.

SUMMER AND FALL IN WESTERN ALASKA by Col. Claude Cane. Hardcover. 1903, Horace Cox (London UK) 191 pages. Sections on hunting bear, sheep, moose and other large game in Alaska. Measures 8.75" H x 6" W.

Very rare & hard to find book. Black & white photo illustrations. Written from a distinctly British POV over 1/2 century before Alaska became a state. This copy has quite a bit of wear with the spine being sun-faded and ripped. Edges of pages are starting to yellow also, but very readable and a great study in detail of the Bush before it was heavily settled by non-Natives. 

Same volume for sale elsewhere on the net (albeit in better condition!) https://www.biblio.com/book/summer-fall-western-alaska-record-trip/d/1436019505
