Sobre este artículo
This is a stated first edition, and first US printing, of Last Essays, by Joseph Conrad. It was published in 1926 and includes 'Legends', the essay he was working on when he died (of a heart attack). It also includes a photo of the hand-written text of 'Legends'; these are the last words he wrote.
As you can see, this book originally belonged to the B'Nai Brith Hill Foundation of Toronto, which stamped the front and back endpapers and put a memorial bookplate on the inside front cover.
171 pages, mostly unadorned.
The binding has been split in the center but is otherwise nice and tight.
Dark blue boards with gold on the cover; there was gold on the spine but it has worn away.
There are the expected little spots here and there but, overall, it's in excellent condition.
