Hardcover. NY, Grove Press, 1st, 2013, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. SIGNED BY HARRISON on publisher's tipped-in prelim page. Jim Harrison was one of America's most beloved writers, and of all his creations, Brown Dog, a bawdy, reckless, down-on-his-luck Michigan Indian, has earned cult status with readers in the more than two decades since his first appearance. For the first time, Brown Dog gathers all the Brown Dog novellas, including one never-published one, into one volume--the ideal introduction (or reintroduction) to Harrison's irresistible Everyman. In these novellas, BD rescues the preserved body of an Indian from Lake Superior's cold waters; overindulges in food, drink, and women while just scraping by in Michigan's Upper Peninsula; wanders Los Angeles in search of an ersatz Native activist who stole his bearskin; adopts two Native children; and flees the authorities, then returns across the Canadian border aboard an Indian rock band's tour bus. The collection culminates with He Dog, never before published, which finds BD marginally employed and still looking for love (or sometimes just a few beers and a roll in the hay), as he goes on a road trip from Michigan to Montana and back, arriving home to the prospect of family stability and, perhaps, a chance at redemption. Clean copy.

Hardcover. NY, HarperCollins, 1st, 1994, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. SIGNED by Babbitt on title page. Babbitt ( Tuck Everlasting ; Knee knock Rise ) has created some extraordinary children's books, and this one is no exception. It is, quite simply, Babbitt at her best. In a medieval castle, a king and queen argue a crucial question: what is the "best thing" for their young prince? The king insists that his wife gives the child too many toys ("If this keeps up, he'll turn out soft and silly"); she retorts that he gives him too many lessons ("If that keeps up, he'll turn out dry and dusty"). The king resorts to his books to find the answer, whereas the queen polls everyone she meets. The responses run the gamut from "vegetables" (the day nursemaid) to "sunshine" (the gardener) to "a song" (the court musician). But it is the cook's daughter who points the perplexed parents in the right direction, instructing them to ask the prince himself. "Bub," replies the toddler, which translates into the inarguably "very best thing": love. This splendid story is matched by exquisite artwork, which offers a refreshingly realistic depiction of the medieval setting and featuring the royal dog (patiently sporting a court jester's cap), who is entirely devoted to the very lovable prince.
