first edition
1960 · [Santiago de Chile]
by Fuentes, Jordi
[Santiago de Chile]: Editorial Andrés Bello, 1960. First edition, 8vo, pp. [3]-1082; fine copy in original brown cloth stamped in gilt on upper cover and spine, and retaining a torn dust jacket with 2 big chips out, but retaining the glaring error in the titling of the book on both the spine and upper panel of the jacket where it states "Dictionary and Grammar of the Eastern Island," instead of Easter Island. Punta Arenas bookseller's ticket on front free endpaper. Three brief vocabularies precede this, but Fuentes's effort is the first comprehensive dictionary and grammar of Pascuan, the language spoken on Easter Island.
