This is the standard National edition, which is fine; however, I wish Amazon sold the southern edition. You can tell which one it is by looking at the 1st or 2nd page, which you can see here because Amazon lets you!
I just left OFA website, almanac.com, to order the southern edition, but didn't... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

The definitive anchor volume on the bookshelf of modern American conservation. Leopold presents the big picture, painted as many small scenes. Again and again, I return to the February essay, "Good Oak," a classic of natural history writing. Leopold is a natural historian of the old school.
