Reader's note

Looking for beautiful vintage books to stand out on your bookshelf? This decoratively covered edition of The Log From The Sea of Cortez by John Steinbeck would be a charming addition to any home library. It details a six-week marine specimen-collecting boat expedition he made in 1940 at various sites in the Gulf of California (also known as the Sea of Cortez), with his friend, the marine biologist Ed Ricketts. It is regarded as one of Steinbeck's most important works of non-fiction chiefly because of the involvement of Ricketts, who shaped Steinbeck's thinking and provided the prototype for many of the pivotal characters in his fiction, and the insights it gives into the philosophies of the two men. This beautiful edition is nicely bound in a tan imitation leather with gilt decoration and titles. There are decorated endpapers, with a portrait of author, illustrations and silk page marker tassel. Just one of the many antique, rare and obscure books available on our online vintage bookstore.
