$50 · Offered by eBay · No longer available

This hardcover edition of Central Valley Project was prepared by the Northern California Writers' Program of the Work Projects Administration (WPA) and published by Binfords & Mort in 1942 as part of the American Guide Series. The volume serves as a historical record documenting the planning, infrastructure development, and water management systems of California's Central Valley during the New Deal era. This copy retains its original tipped-in errata slip. The rough cloth boards are very clean with light to no wear to the edges, though the top left rear cover corner bows out slightly.The inside rear cover pastedown is slightly torn and pulled loose along the gutter, causing the rear cover to loosen slightly. There is also very light staining to one side of the exposed page ends. Inside, the pages are very clean with no markings, dog ears, or tears, showing only slight waving along the gutter from the binding structure. No dust jacket or slipcover is present.
