Sobre este artículo
Toronto: Saunders, (1945). First Canadian edition.. Green cloth, spine lettered in gilt within a gilt frame. 160pp. Ownership signature on the front end paper, dated Montreal, October 1945. A nice clean copy in a slightly worn dust jacket, the spine of the jacket darkened and with some light chipping to edges, a short tear along the lower rear fold. The copyright page states: "First Canadian Edition / May 1945". The dust jacket of this edition is based upon that of the first American (Macmillan) edition of 1943, with no imprint at the bottom of the front panel, and a description of the book on the rear panel. The jacket corners are not clipped, and the jacket bears no price. Really quite a nice copy of the first Canadian Edition, issued three years after the 1942 English first edition. Dedicated to J.R.R. Tolkien. Not so common in the jacket. Not mentioned by Brown in his "In Pursuit of C.S. Lewis ....".
