Hardcover. First edition. A trifle rubbed, still fine lacking the uncommon dustwrapper. The Texas-born Scarborough was a musicologist and anthropologist, educated at Baylor, the University of Chicago, and Columbia, where she received a Ph.D. She published *The Wind*, a classic feminist novel, anonymously in 1925. Scarborough also pioneered the field of collecting folk and indigenous American songs and music. A nice copy.
