Sobre este artículo
William Heinemann Ltd., London, 1930. Book. Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. First Edition (first printing). 8vo. 344pp. Dark blue cloth lettered in gold at the spine and with a blind border to the upper board. Top edge dust soiled. Cloth a little marked, with some light rubbing to two or three extremities. Edges, endpapers and several dozen preliminary leaves quite lightly spotted, and with a little further occasional mostly marginal spotting. An inch-long slit to head of the front hinge, but the binding still sound. Several small areas of surface abrasion to the front pastedown where it would appear a bookplate has been removed, and a former owner signature neatly inked to the front free endpaper. A good copy. No dust wrapper. The author's third book and second novel, which he subsequently distanced himself from and was never reprinted. Wobbe A3 (who estimates that not more than 3,000 copies were printed)..
