The Great Plains
Walter Prescott Webb · Ginn and Company (Boston) · 1931
US Ginn and Company, Boston, 1931 is the true first, issued by a textbook house rather than a trade publisher — the census claim is correct. No UK edition or competing foreign first is recorded. Later Ginn (1959) and Blaisdell Publishing (Waltham, 1959) issues are the textbook house's own reprints, and the University of Nebraska Press edition (Lincoln, 1981) is a "first thus" with new front matter.
