Sobre este artículo
Indianapolis: The Bobbs-Merrill Company, 1928. 327pp. Original publisher's indigo cloth boards lettered in gilt, with the unclipped illustrated dustwrapper. Fore and bottom edges uncut, spine a little cocked, with some further bumping. Wrapper shows losses to all panels, and light soiling. Internally a little toned but still clear. Inscribed on the front free endpaper from the author to Henry Williamson 'To my dear old Henry from his friend J. D. Beresford, Swanage May 1928'. J. D. Beresford was an English journalist, dramatist and novelist. Though he is credited with writing the first critical study of H. G. Wells, he himself is now most remembered for his early science fiction and horror writings. His daughter Elisabeth was also an author, best remembered now as the creator of The Wombles. . First American edition. 8vo.
