THIS JUST IN: Here is a beautiful copy of Out of Doors in Florida (1923) by the famed conservationist Charles Torrey Simpson. It is a signed first edition. Simpson became an authority on the shells, mollusks, and plant life of south Florida, and did research for the Smithsonian Institution and the National Museum of Natural History. He was known as the Sage of Biscayne Bay. He was a prolific writer and began publishing in the late 1880s. This is one of his last books.
