About This Item
Washington, DC: Island Press/Shearwater Book, 1998. First Edition. First Printing. Hardcover. Very good/very good. 271 pages. Illus., index, slight wear to DJ, "autographed copy" sticker on front DJ. Signed by the author. Thomas Y. Canby was fortunate to be a National Geographic writer and science editor from 1961 to 1991, a time during which the Society's ventures and size grew by leaps and bounds and the resources available to staff were seemingly limitless. In these recollections, he gives readers an on-the-ground look at the life of a "Geographic" staffer and an insider's view of the fascinating dynamics within the magazine's editorial chambers.
