For your consideration is the 1955 "The Frontier Years", the classic depicting L.A. Huffman's photographs by Mark H. Brown & W.R. Felton, written about L.A. Huffman's travels and most importantly, his photographs of the west and especially Montana from 1879 to 1931; "...he took many of his most important photos in the early 1880s. He did so with relatively crude equipment and technology, yet produced images of a quality that could not be bettered today. He photographed the West as it was - the unvarnished truth, not romanticized versions as depicted by novelists, artists and Hollywood. Huffman left an unmatched visual record of early Montana". This book shows good condition with wear and tear to the dust jacket but no obvious signs of damage are present to the hardback cover. The interior pages show good condition as well. The book measures 8. 5"W x 11"L x 1"D, weight 2lb, 4oz.
