Text / Sprache: Englisch, Woods and River Tales : From the World of Roderick Haig-Brown. Edited by Valerie Haig-Brown, Haig-Brown, Roderick L., 1908-1976 , From Canada's master raconteur, Woods and River Tales is a fascinating excursion into the rugged coastland of British Columbia in the company of the colourful people who settled there more than forty years ago. Marked by unforgettable descriptions of the wilderness, Woods and River Tales pays tribute to the men and women who struggled with harsh obstacles - and with each other - to create lives filled with equal parts of danger, laughter, and deep satisfaction. Born in England, Roderick Haig-Brown immigrated to British Columbia in the late 1920s. His many works include such well-known classics as The Western Angler, A River Never Sleeps, and Measure of the Year. This collection contains some of Haig-Brown's best short stories, and is the first in a trilogy of books From the World of Roderick Haig-Brown. 17838A ISBN 0771037562 Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 530.

THE DIARIES: Salem, Oregon. The Beaverdam Press. 1992. Octodecimo (6 x 4 1/2). Limited Edition. Set number 26 of 150 sets (about 75 sets of the planned 150 were bound and sold). Signed by Valerie Haig-Brown, Richard Bunse & the publisher, Earle Henness. Six Volumes: Vol. 1, 77 pp. Vol. 2, 76 pp. Vol. 3, 77 pp. Vol. 4, 75 pp. Vol. 5, 42 pp. plus the colophon comprise the diary entries. Vol. 6 with 12 fold-out panels each holding a black and white photo with captions taken by Roderick Haig-Brown. Laid in a pocket is a map drawn by Haig-Brown reproduced on pale blue oiled linen (12 x 8) that shows the Nimpkish Valley area where the diary entries took place. The first 5 volumes with frontispieces, decorative initials, and illustrations drawn by Richard Bunse. The initials were hand colored by Marion Cluff and gold foil stamped at the press. Roderick Haig-Brown arrived in the Nimpkish Valley in 1927. "He logged, surveyed, beachcombed and set out to learn to fish the Pacific Northwest coast. But, more more than anything, it was here that Haig-Brown would mature as a writer. His five diaries of the early years of North America from 1927-1929 and 1932-1933 reveal the freshness and immediacy of evolving genius that culminates in classic works like A River Never Sleeps, a book deeply informed by the period of these diaries." The spines of first five volumes are bound in forest green Harmatan goat skin and the boards of each volume bound in different colors of textured paste paper, with each volume's number stamped in gilt on the spine. The sixth volume is bound in the same colored green cloth with a fish in gilt on the spine. The six volumes were bound by Sandy Tilcock. The books are kept in a light olive green cloth folding box with titling label; the box has a pull-out tray so that all volumes can easily slide in and out of the box; the fold-down front is kept in place by a magnetic closure at the top. The set was issued with four original and distinct prospectus' and they are present. A magnificent, elegant production. This is the real Cave A 203. All in fine condition.///// THE BROADSIDE: Salem, Oregon. The Beaverdam Press. 1989. Special Edition. Copy number of 30 of 100 copies (about 40 of the limited edition were actually sold). Signed by the artist, Richard Bunse. The broadside frame measures 30 1/2 x 13 1/2. The broadside was hand printed by Earle Henness and Richard Bunse at The Beaverdam Press in early 1989 and offered for sale at that time - five years before the diaries went on sale. The quotation was taken from the yet-to-be published Diaries of Roderick Haig-Brown, which were finally made available to the public in 1994 (despite the 1992 publication date in the diaries). Haig-Brown's Golden Girl fly, dressed on a size 6/0 hook, is mounted at the bottom of the broadside and was dressed by Jim Snyder. Richard Bunse's illustration shows Haig-Brown standing by a river's edge holding a freshly caught salmon with his fly rod - drawn from a period photograph. The broadside is framed in mahogany and under glass. In fine condition. Shipping at cost. Signed by Author and Illustrator.
