London, Henry S. King, 1874. Second Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A very good copy. Presumed second edition based on what's available in the various catalogues. The First Fairytale novel written in English [Mike Ashley, Encyclopedia of Fantasy, p210]. Modelled on Spenser's Fairy Queene. In Bleiler [p46] under fantasy. Uncommon. Six copies on COPAC, one at auction (excluding an 1877 sale where I imagine it was classed as a hyper-modern first edition!). An important book. Plate of R.S.
