From dust jacket: "The wilderness and its natural wonders, as well as the settlers and the warring Indians, come vividly alive for readers... If only his father had bound him out to learn blacksmithing or some other useful trade, young Tobias wouldn't have minded. But to traipse through the Tennessee wilderness with a naturalist from Philadelphia, whose concern with insects and plants and birds seemed childish and often somewhat "touched" to the frontier folk, was almost more than he could bear." Jacket has edgewear, tanned spine and fingermarks or soil on back cover. Pages are tanned. . Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Hard Cover. Good/Good. Illus. by Galdone, Paul. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
