The author spent several weeks at a ranch in Colorado taking pictures for this book. It presents the first seven days of a colt's life. From Wikipedia: "Dare Wright (December 3, 1914 January 25, 2001) was a Canadian American children's author, model and photographer. Born in Thornhill, Ontario, Canada, Wright spent most of her childhood in Cleveland, Ohio. Her parents divorced when she was young, and she was raised by her mother, the portrait artist Edith Stevenson Wright, while her brother, Blaine, went to live with his father, Ivan Wright, a theater critic in New York City. The siblings did not meet again until Dare moved to New York City in her twenties. In 1957, she photographed her childhood Lenci doll, Edith, along with two teddy bears bought at FAO Schwarz, for her first children's book, titled The Lonely Doll. The book made The New York Times Best Seller list for children's books. In November 2010, The British Newspaper The Guardian named The Lonely Doll one of the 10 Best Illustrated Children's Books of all time. It was followed by eighteen other stories. Out of print for many years, it was reissued in 1998, introducing Wright to a new generation of readers. Make Me Real, which features another of Wright's childhood dolls, and Ocracoke in The Fifties, her only book written for adults, have been published posthumously. Dare Wright's photographs were exhibited for the first time in 2012 by Fred Torres Collaborations.".

Laminate boards. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Dare Wright (illustrator). WARMLY INSCRIBED BY DARE WRIGHT on the front flyleaf. A very presentable copy to boot of the 1969 1st edition. Clean and Near Fine in a bright, price-intact, VG dustjacket, with light tape and a bit of chipping along the edges (especially alonmg the rear panel's top-edge). Still though, a sharp, attractive copy. Crisp black-and-white photos throughout (a number of them beguiling) by the always-fascinating Dare Wright.
