Sobre este artículo
London: Walter Scott, Ltd., 1903. The third book by Yeats; first published in 1888. This is a Very Good copy of the First Edition Thus, part of "Scott's Library." There is no publication date; however British Library and Oxford hold copies noted as 1903 and 1906; Wade (223) notes it to have been published in October of 1903. "Scott's Library" was intended to be cheaper editions of 120 famous books; but this is bound decoratively in green cloth with fancy gilt tips and ruling - almost a fine binding! A Very Good copy. Clean text; xviii, 326 pages, including note, and with 18 pages of publisher adverts in the rear (includes 119 titles in the Library; this being Number 37). Mild bumping and light rubbing at the head and foot of the spine. Previous-owner signature on the front paste-down and the Title Page. Occasional/scattered pencil marking. Tipped-in at the rear paste-down is an envelope with a postmark from 1908. A solid copy. In an archival plastic protector. Size: 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall. First Thus.. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall.
