A Changed Man: The Waiting Supper And Other Tales concluding with The Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid.

HARDY, Thomas.

MacMillan and Co., Limited, London, 1913. FIRST EDITION. Octavo. With a map of Wessex and a frontispiece. Publisher's green cloth, gilt decoration to upper board, top edge gilt. In the original printed dust-jacket. Book is fine, but for some offset browning from flaps, neat ink name hidden beneath. The fragile paper jacket has some chips to the extremities and a loss to the foot of the spine, several closed tears. Presentable nonetheless. A remarkable survival. Item #38988

Purdy, pp.151-157.

Price: £1,200.00
