Jacket shows gentle sunning to spine and extremities with a chip at the head of the front panel. Internally nice. By members of the faculty of the College of Agriculture, University of California. "California Agriculture is a big subject - to tell all about it would take a five-foot shelf; hence this one inclusive volume about soils, crops, livestock, and the protection of plants and animals from pests and diseases, together with the earlier history and a discussion of social and economic conditions. It is a book for anyone, anywhere, who wants the comprehensive view." - from the jacket.
