HISTORY: From the beloved collection of the Atkinson family, whose stories are weaved together in George Howe Colt's New York Times notable book of the year, "The Big House: A Century in the Life of an American Summer Home." Many of these books are inscribed by Atkinson family members. I highly recommend Colt's memoir, if only to discover the history behind these eclectic family treasures.

Sound binding. Previous Owner Stamp on pasted front endpaper and title page. Pages are otherwise crisp and clean.
