A Reverence for Wood
New York: Wilfred Funk, Inc., (1965).
Sold
Hardcover. First edition. Quarto. Fine in fine dustwrapper with perhaps the slightest of sunning at the spine. Promotional brochure for Sloane's works laid in. Sloane has Inscribed the book to the great boxing champion Gene Tunney: "To Gene Tunney who always had a reverence for wood. Eric Sloane. Warren, Conn." beneath which Sloane has drawn the figure of a man (Tunney?) fleeing from a toppling tree. Presumably the drawing tells a story, and we will be happy to fabricate one if you'd like.
