"Wall Street and The Wilds" by A. W. Dimock 1842-1918 Premier Press Leather, raised spine, with gilt lettering and page edges Limited edition: 2596 of 3000 Camden, South Carolina 1993 The limited edition (3000 copies) book has an impression of the original owner on the free endpaper. The previous owner was a charter member of Premier Press Books. Otherwise, the book is unmarked. After purchase the book was shelved and not read. The ribbon remains where it was when the book was first purchased. I don't see any flaws with this book. "A.W. Dimock was a successful businessman, an author of books of fiction for boys and a writer of non-fiction articles about outdoor life and nature subjects such as Tarpon fishing in Florida, wintering in upper Quebec, and the life of a lumberjack. He dominated the gold market of the country at the age of 23, and at 30 he controlled the Bankers and Merchants Telegraph Company, and was president of the Atlantic Mail and other steamship lines. He was first a member of the firm of Maquand & Dimock, bankers and brokers, and later A.W. Dimock & Co. At the height of his career he left New York City to seek adventure among the Indians and ranchers of the West. When he returned East a few years later he took a prominent part in the development of Elizabeth, N. J., building miles of streets and several hundred dwellings." - Vermont History.org Please see all photos.

The seller was very communicative and pleasant to buy from. The item was carefully packaged and arrived extremely quickly. I was so happy to receive this collection. I was desperately searching for small kid time in Hawaii. I am so thankful that I finally get to own my own copy
