Donnelley & Sons CompanyAbout Lakeside Press Classics:In 1903 Thomas Donnelley, President of R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company, was looking for an appropriate Christmas remembrance to give to employees and friends. He wanted something simple, dignified and representative of the company. He decided on an annual book relating to historical subjects. The first Lakeside Classics book, "The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin" was distributed that year. Each book was beautifully bound in cloth and gold-embossed. The books were never sold - only given as gifts. Since the books were not sold and are out of print they are highly collectible. Condition:This copy is in very good condition. The binding is tight - no loose pages. Pages are crisp and clean with no tears, markings, highlighting or stains. There is no mold, mildew or odor. There may be a slight lean to the spine - see pictures for details. This is a unique and special copy of a classic book that would be a valuable addition to any library. About the Book:This book is a first-hand account of a voyage to the Northwest Coast of America by Gabriel Franchère, a fur trader who sailed with the North West Company in 1811. Franchère's account is a vivid and detailed description of the voyage, from the departure from Montreal to the arrival at Fort Astoria.Franchère's account provides insights into the challenges and dangers of life on the Northwest Coast, as well as the interactions between the fur traders and the Native Americans. He also provides a firsthand account of the fur trade and the role it played in the development of the Northwest Coast.A Voyage to the Northwest Coast of America is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, the fur trade, or the Northwest Coast. It is a fascinating and informative book that offers insights into both the personal and historical aspects of the voyage.___________________I ship daily Monday-Friday from a smoke-free home in Texas.
