Featured in this lot is this 1931 first edition copy of “Big – Enough” by Will James. This book is about a cowboy and a horse that were born on the same day. The cowboy, Billy, and his horse, Big-enough, run away from his parents after they want to send Billy to get educated. Big-enough is a "coming of age in the west novel." The condition of the book is good overall, with stains and wear to the original dust cover and slight browning to the pages consistent with the age of the book. The measurements of the book are 8 1/2" x 6".
