A solid vintage Western history title from McGraw-Hill’s American Trails Series, The Great North Trail traces one of North America’s oldest migration and travel routes—from Asia across Alaska and down through the Rockies to Texas.
This 1966 first edition by Dan Cushman blends frontier history, exploration, gold rush stories, and trail lore in one readable volume.
It is a great pick for collectors of Americana, Western history, and vintage nonfiction with shelf presence.
Jacket shows visible wear including edge rubbing, toning, creasing, small chips, and noticeable loss/tearing around the spine ends and corners.
Price of 150 is penciled on the front free endpaper, and there is additional writing visible on the rear blue endpaper.
Blue cloth boards remain attractive overall with mild shelf wear. Interior pages appear clean and readable with light age toning. Binding looks sound from the photos.

Condition Grade Key:
This is a wonderful copy for the reader who enjoys vintage history that still feels immersive and alive. Dan Cushman writes with momentum, so this is the kind of book you can sink into chapter by chapter, following migrations, trails, gold rush routes, and frontier stories across a huge American landscape

Yes. Every photo on this page is the actual item you will receive. Not a stock photo, not a similar copy. What you see is what ships.
Honestly. This is vintage, so expect some age. When I find wear, writing, stains, loose pages, chips, or missing pieces, I note them and show them in the photos. Some marks add character. Some are just flaws. I tell you which is which so you can decide if this is the right one for you.
With care. Old books and fragile pieces are wrapped and boxed so they arrive the way they left me. Careful packing is one of the things buyers mention most in their reviews. Orders of $35 or more ship free.
Probably not. Everything here is one of a kind, and I rarely find the same item twice. Once it sells, it is gone. Vintage does not restock neatly.
