London, Hutchinson, n.d. [1929]. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A near fine copy. Foreword by John Galsworthy. Published previously in 1921 in Czech. Collects nine stories (some previously published in English in the magazines). Capek's second collection (preceded by Wayside Crosses). Jacket toned, particularly to the spine. Some wear to head and tail of spine. A little foxing, but quite minor. All in all a nice copy. [7883, Hyraxia Books].
