Description: Cosimo di Rondó, a young Italian nobleman of the eighteenth century, rebels against his parents by climbing into the trees and remaining there for the rest of his life. He adapts efficiently to an existence in the forest canopy—he hunts, sows crops, plays games with earth-bound friends, fights forest fires, solves engineering problems, and even manages to have love affairs. From his perch in the trees, Cosimo sees the Age of Enlightenment pass by, and a new century dawn.There is a very small folded top corner on the front cover. Folded top corner on the back cover. Only a couple folded corner pages near the back cover, and all other pages are straight. Pages are bright and good quality. No writing or underlining or other marks in the book. Very light scuff marks on the front cover near the spine, but the cover is sturdy and still glossy.--Rare, hard to find cover design.
