London, William Heinemann, 1934. Proof. Paperback. A good copy, only. Very uncommon. Minor corrections and annotations throughout by the author. The corrections, it seems, made it to the finished book. Presented in a lovely box. Wrapper covered in aged, discoloured tape, upper wrapper almost detached. Spine lean. Lord Dunsany (1878-1957) was a prolific writer and one of the architects of what has now cemented itself as the fantasy genre. His work, along with Eddison, Macdonald and Morris, was key in creating the channels from folklore and mythology to entirely synthetic secondary worlds. [11813, Hyraxia Books].
