London, Jarrolds, 1949. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A very good copy. Some bumping to the jacket and spine tips, a little rubbing and creasing overall. 8mm tear to the lower fold. A patch of offsetting to the endpapers. 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. [11815, Hyraxia Books].
