About This Item
Boston: Perry Mason Company, 1902. Magazine. VG. Soft cover. Elephant Folio. Entire issue, May 29, 1902, newspaper style, light general wear-only, horizontal mailing crease all but gone, no tears or chips, no mailing label, small rust spots and holes at spine from staples, which have been neatly removed, leaving issue fully intact, but not attached, a very good copy overall, This is the first appearance of this story that was published later in Century Magazine, 1908, in a different version with significant changes. In this earlier version, the man survives but with frostbite and a better understanding of the impersonal, unsympathetic attitude of the natural world toward mankind. The later version is widely known as among the author's most technically masterful and popular stories. A very scarce, important item in the London canon.
