About This Item
Garden City Publishing, 1940. Hardcover. Near Fine in Very Good DJ. Early reprint, near fine hardcover with zebra pattern covers shows just a hint of wear, tiny soil spot at front flap, else tight and clean, in a price-clipped dust jacket that shows touch of rubbing and toning to jacket along with edgewear that includes closed tears and very shallow open chips and bit deeper chips (1/2 inch or so) at top edge. 376 pages loaded with black & whites. Still a solid copy in jacket of this "..completely charming and thrilling story of great love and adventure" as told by Osa of her life of thrills with her husband Martin.
Reviews
On Jul 28 2017, a reader said:
I saw the Johnsons present their travel movies when I was very young. My grandparents took me, and the book was on their shelf....now on mine. I love this book and have read it many times. The story of their romance is charming, and her courage at a young age is amazing. You may often see it in decorator/design magazines, because of the beautiful zebra print cloth cover.
