Lost Man's River is inscribed by Matthiessen to fellow National Book Award winning author Robert Stone; which reads, "For Bob Stone/ with great admiration/ for your work/ Peter [Matthiessen]/ Autumn 97". Killing Mister Watson and Bone by Bone are each signed by Matthiessen. Octavo, 3 volumes. Original boards. All are fine in fine dust jackets. A wonderful association linking two of our great American writers.
"Gorgeously written and unfailingly compelling, Shadow Country is the exhilarating masterwork of [Matthiessen's] career, every bit as ambitious as Moby Dick" (National Geographic ). "Peter Mattiessen consolidates his epic masterpiece of Florida -- and crafts something even better[He] deserves credit for decades of meticulous research and obsessive details and soaring prose that converted the Watson legend into critically acclaimed literature.Anyone wanting an explanation for what happened to Florida can now find it in a single novel, a great American novel" (Miami Herald).
