Birds of the Southwestern Desert

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £15.37
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

The author served as Publicity Director for the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce from 1924 to 1929, and as Social Director of the Arizona Biltmore Hotel from 1929 to 1945. In both capacities, she wrote a number of promotional brochures and travel articles about Arizona. Ms. Smith also wrote short stories and articles which were submitted to national magazines for publication, and was a contributor to Arizona Highways. Fascinated by the birds in the desert surrounding the hotel, she studied local flora and fauna. In 1941, Smith published Birds of the Southwestern Desert, based on a popular lecture series she conducted while at the Biltmore. Matthews Library of Arizona State University later honored her by naming a nook for her literary contributions.
