Some soiling along edges, an effusive gift inscription in ink on the front free endpaper, but a good copy.   This epistolary essay was first published in "The Yale Review," and thereafter as a separate title in the Hogarth Press "Letters" series. Woolf was indeed addressing a particular young poet: John Lehmann, who was working as an apprentice at the Press founded by Leonard and Virginia Woolf in 1917. The wolf, i.e., Woolf logo on the title page represents the earliest interpretation of the illustration. KIRKPATICK A17a. WOOLMER 314.

Unable to write, Stevenson dictated thirty chapters of the novel to his stepdaughter as a diversion from his debilitating illness. He alternated dictating St. Ives and The Weir of Hermiston but gradually lost interest in the former. The plot concerns the adventures of the dashing Capitaine Jacques St. Ives, a Napoleonic soldier, after his capture by the British.

Common to this edition, the spine is quite sunned compared to the dark green half cloth, but gilt lettering remains bright. A pinpoint speck to the front cover's paper. The slipcase has minor wear to corners, the tail is bumped.; Sir Walter Scott's arguably best short story of the rough life of two cattle drivers in Scotland, privately printed in celebration of his bicentennial birthday. Copy 242 of an edition of 680 and signed on the colophon by Coleman O. Parsons who wrote an extensive Foreword for this edition. Frontispiece is a fanciful lion with spread claws, printed in red. The front pastedown bears a portrait of Scott, but I'm partial to the frontis, instead. Text block trimmed at the head edge. Printed by Meriden Gravure on Hale Paper's mould-made rag paper designed by F. T. Jackson and bearing a facsimile of Sir Walter Scott's signature of 1827. Bound by A.… Read More
