Tal: His Marvelous Adventures with Noom-Zor-Noom

Great-grandson of James, Paul Fenimore Cooper tells the story of an orphaned boy's fantastical journey in Tal, His Marvelous Adventures with Noom-Zor-Noom. A foreword by Paul Cooper's nephew notes that Paul Cooper was a contemporary of A.A. Milne, Hugh Lofting and L. Frank Baum and that Tal, published in 1929, enjoyed modest success. Gorgeous b&w woodcuts by Ruth Reeves illustrate the text. ( Oct.)
