North with the Spring

First edition, first printing. Water damage to outside edge of front and back boards. Pages clean. Chipped dust jacket shows shelf wear and sunning to spine. A naturalist's record of a 17,000 mile journey with the North American spring. Spring means different things in different places; to most people, the first robin; to others, peepers, dogwood, strawberry shortcake, bluebirds. To everyone it brings a sense of excitement, adventure, and movement. It makes us all want to do what Edwin Way Teale has done - go south in winter and follow the spring northward.
