ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1962). 1962 1st US edition. 8vo (147 x 220mm). Pp206. B/w illustrations by Geoffrey W. Goss. Light green cloth with black muskie image on upper board, spine title printed in black / gilt. Very good in chipped dust-wrapper. Published (simultaneously?) in 1962 in Canada as "Ma-Kee: The Life And Death Of A Muskellunge," and in the US as "The Mighty Muskellunge." Both versions were printed and bound in England by Hazell Watson and Viney Ltd., Aylesbury and Slough. It is likely that the Canadian edition takes precedence, and that this edition was also sold in the U.K. The fictionalised story of the life of the muskie, Ma-Kee."Below the surface of the Kawartha Lakes is the strange, fierce, forbidding world of eternal conflict for survival. Here is the world of the great game fish, the muskellunge, Ma-Kee. The muskellunge is the fiercest, strongest and most voracious of our freshwater fish, a king of the water as the lion is the king of the jungle. From birth to death, Ma-Kee is surrounded by violence and danger. In infancy, she escapes by a thin fin from becoming a meal for minnows and water beatles [sic], and as her size increases, she in turn becomes a savage hunter: a hunter prized by human hunters - the 'Baron,' a vacationing angler determined to get a muskie at all costs. Ma-Kee is not only a book for the ardent fisherman, who enjoys the tug of a powerful tale; it will also find itself in the hands of anyone who cherishes the dramatic yet intimate relationship between animal and man." .…

hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. Gwasg Gregynog: A Descriptive Catalogue of Printing at Gregynog 1970-1990, Compiled by David Esslemont and Glyn Tegai Hughes â" 1st Edition Publication: Newtown, Powys, Gwasg Gregynog, 1990 Formatting: 4to, pp. xii, 74, [2]. Condition Report: Near Fine. The volume remains tightly bound and completely square, with the spine free of any creasing, rolling, or fading. The grey paper wrappers are notably clean and bright, exhibiting only the most trivial touches of rubbing to the extremities and a minuscule bump to the head of the spine. Internally, the pages are uniformly crisp, unblemished, and entirely free from foxing, ensuring the typography and delicate tipped-in illustrations retain their original vibrancy. A highly attractive and well-preserved copy. Catalogue Note: This is a limited edition, one of 900 total copies printed, with this copy being one of the 755 standard copies bound in stiff card covers and wrapped in a printed grey paper dust wrapper with French flaps. The catalogue provides an essential bibliography of the press's output over a twenty-year period, covering books, booklets, and over one hundred items of ephemera. The entries include meticulous details on edition sizes, typefaces, presses used, papers, bindings, and prices. The work is lavishly illustrated with forty-one examples taken directly from the press's publications, including striking wood engravings by prominent artists such as Sarah van Niekerk, Peter Reddick, and Christopher Wormell. The inclusion of several tipped-in specimens further elevates the volume, serving not merely as a reference work but as a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of the Gregynog Press. Despite the limitation, standard wrapper-bound copies appear with moderate frequency on the open market, making it an accessible yet vital addition for collectors of modern British private press and typography. An indispensable reference for enthusiasts of fine press printing, this meticulously compiled catalogue celebrates two decades of remarkable craftsmanship at Gwasg Gregynog. Beyond a simple bibliography, it offers a visually striking journey through the press's history, illuminated by insightful notes and a wealth of intricate wood engravings, linocuts, and tipped-in specimens from leading artists and designers of the period.
