The Unforeseen Wilderness; An Essay on Kentucky's Red River Gorge (Inscribed by Meatyard and Signed by Berry)

Lexington: The University Press of Kentucky, 1971. First edition. Cloth. Square quarto. 96 pp of text followed by a suite of black and white photographs. A very good example in oatmeal cloth binding with some light soiling to covers. The original printed price on the inside front flap has been neatly scratched away, otherwise a very good example of the dustwrapper with crease to front panel. What makes this a standout copy is the fact that it has been briefly INSCRIBED by Meatyard. The first example of the photographer's signature that we have seen in over a decade. This copy has also been SIGNED by Wendell Berry who provides the text. Only one other example of a book signed by Meatyard currently exists in the secondary market. Very Good / very good.
