The Mammoth Hunters and The Plains of Passage Jean M. Auel Earth's Children Book Bundle Crown Hardcover Dust Jackets
$24.99
This bundle includes The Mammoth Hunters (1985) and The Plains of Passage (1990) by Jean M. Auel, books 3 and 4 of the Earth's Children series, published by Crown Publishers of New York as hardcovers with dust jackets, and both books shown are included in the sale.
The Mammoth Hunters jacket is in lovely shape front and back with no rips or tears inside, and its one mark is a previous owner's ink address stamp on the title page, while The Plains of Passage has no flaws noted.
In The Mammoth Hunters, Ayla and Jondalar come to live among the Mamutoi, a people who hunt mammoth on the Ice Age steppes, where Ayla must find her place and choose between two men. The Plains of Passage follows the pair as they set out on the long journey west across Ice Age Europe toward Jondalar's home, so this bundle carries the Earth's Children story through two full books of prehistoric historical fiction.
