Sobre este artículo
NY: Alfred A. Knopf, 1982. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo. xi(i),876,(iv)pp. Black cloth spine, dark gray paper over boards, both blocked in copper foil. A trace of sunning along the top board edge, and a touch of soil to the top and bottom text edges else this is a fine copy. The dust wrapper is not price-clipped and is also fine.
Inscribed by the author in the title page: "For Patrick".

In 1968 The East Kingdom was founded in the SCA; it was started by Elfrida and Walter of Greenwalls (Marion Zimmer Bradley and her then husband Walter Breen).

Elfrida and Walter of Greenwalls were the seneschals and the autocrats..."
This copy is signed on the title page, not on a plate or slip of paper pasted in. "Historical writing on a grand scale, with all the magic conviction and resonance of ballad and ancient lore." - Barron (ed), Fantasy Literature 4A-48.
