What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding

The first edition of this early poetry collection from D. H. Lawrence.

This the variant with the 'i' omitted from the word 'is' in line 16, p. xlv. While some say priority undetermined, others identify this as a first issue.

Including love poems, dialect poems, and 'The Schoolmaster'.

This was Lawrence's first published collection of poetry.

With the former owner's inscription 'April - May 1914' to the front free endpaper.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Minor shelf wear to back strip tail, with a touch of fading to fore edge of front board. Inscription to front free endpaper. Internally, firmly bound. Pages bright, with the odd minor handling mark or spot.
