OUR WORLD TODAY
ASIA, LATIN AMERICA, UNITED STATES
Written and edited by De Forest Stull and Roy W. Hatch. Published by Allyn and Bacon, copyright 1941. Most likely a first edition as the copyright and title page dates match.
The Stull and Hatch geography books “Our World Today” were printed in various editions through the 30s and 40s. There were four different volumes which covered all areas of the globe. This one covers Asia, Latin America and the United States.
The book is full of great old black and white photos with descriptive text covering the land, people, agriculture and industries of various parts of the world. There are a number of full page color maps of the various regions.
“This 1941 edition of OUR WORLD TODAY—ASIA, LATIN AMERICA, UNITED STATES brings the material up to date with the latest statistics and census figures. Especial attention is given to Latin America and our good neighbor policy, and the volume ends with a full description of the United States treated ocupationally.”
DESCRIPTION:

first edition hardcover
CONDITION:
This hard-cover book is in good- condition. The orangish cloth hardcover is somewhat soiled and shows wear at the corners and spine ends. The endpapers have school stamps and some general grubbiness. The lower corner has been torn from the frontispiece. There is some rippling of the top page edges so this part of the book came in contact with moisture at one time. There are a few small tears in the rear endpapers. The paper is slightly toned with age. The interior is mostly clean—there are no marks, underlining or major tears of the text pages. The hinges and binding are good with no loose or missing pages.
