Limited to 1000 copies. Hardbound 8vo (9.25 inches tall) 246 pages. Description: From the author's preface: ''What do we have here in this 'last book' with its tongue-twisting title and subtitle? Now past my mid-eighties the time has come to sweep out and shut down. These essays and addresses are the fruits of a twenty-year residence in Arizona, with entradas into adjacent lands. They were written for various occasions to be heard or read by ordinary people with extraordinary interests. My selections fall into several parts, of landscape, literature and history, subjects and occasions. There is present also the obligation of a librarian's occupation, a morality urged by me throughout my writing and speaking. My first obligation was to praise and give thanks for the fullness of life, and then urge my hearers and readers to do likewise.''
