New York: Random House, 1941. First edition. Near fine in very good plus jacket.. First printing of the horse book of all horse books.

And not just any horse-a wild stallion who loves him best and hates everyone else in the whole world. With an unmatched pair of primal training sequences unmatched in the numerous sequels, THE BLACK STALLION elaborates its theme of the uneasy alliance between 'untamed, unbroken' nature and civilization, and the deep compromises forced on wild things by human love and ambition. One of the great children's books of the twentieth century. 8'' x 5.5''. Original grey cloth, horse head stamped in black on front board, spine stamped in black and red. In original unclipped ($2.00) black and red pictorial dust jacket. Red topstain. Illustrated in black and white by Keith Ward. x, 275, [1] pages.…

Description:
London: William Heinemann Ltd, 1956. Fine in fine jacket.. Rare first edition of this classic mystery exploring the dark crimes born of the evil impulse to acquire rare books without paying a fair market price for them. Farmer's examination of the psychology driving the bookseller's natural predator, the other bookseller, culminates in the biblio-mystery subgenre's most spectacular confrontation scene: "You are indeed the Bride of Satan," the victim cries; "what do you want of me?" "Books," the murderer replies, speaking for us all; "to read to my sisters in Hell." Shops and characters claimed to be fictitious. A book of great charm, particularly rare in such condition. 7.25'' x 5''. Original black cloth with gilt-lettered spine. In original price-clipped pictorial dust jacket. 208 pages. Light scuffing and edgewear to jacket, spine very faintly sunned.
