Hardcover, without dustcover. Yes! The company really is named after someone! Inventor and retail magnate Bean (1872-1967), born Leon Leonwood Bean, was orphaned when he was 12 and had little schooling outside of public school. An enthusiastic hunter and fisherman, Bean often had to suffer with soggy boots during his hunting trips. So, in 1912, he asked a cobbler to design a rubber-soled walking shoe that he called the "Maine Hunting Shoe". His first customers for the boots were drawn from a list of Maine hunting license owners. He offered a 100% money back guarantee, which almost ruined him when it turned out that his first boot design wasn't up to the rigors of hiking. But he persevered, redesigned his first boot design and soon added other clothing and hunting and fishing equipment to his catalog. As of this biography, Bean's one-man company has grown into a global mail order and retail powerhouse that employs over 5,000 people year-round and has over $1.5 billion in sales. Lightly toned. Front endsheet is lightly discolored at spine. Text block is separating from spine. Cover is lightly water spotted and stained and has rounded and worn corners. Spine is lightly discolored.
