Revised and enlarged from the 1976 University of Toronto edition. Limited to 500 copies. During the last quarter of the nineteenth century George Gissing wrote twenty-two published, and at least five unpublished, novels, three other prose works of book length, some literary criticism and well over a hundred short stories. A hundred years later interest in his work continues unabated. This bibliography provides a detailed up-to-date and systematic description of Gissing's publishing career, based upon an examination of countless copies of the books themselves. The author has extensively revised and enlarged this edition of his book, extending the treatment of reissues and adding entirely new sections on the short stories and on Gissing criticism, as well as a new introduction. This bibliography is not an enumeration of reissues up to the present day, but an account of Gissing's writing life in terms of the composition and publication of the works he produced. As a work of reference, it is intended as much for the general reader and student as for the antiquarian bookseller or bibliophile. Mark in red ink on front of jacket. xiv , 167 pages. cloth.. 8vo..

Book Description Limited edition of 500 copies. Cloth, 8vo, viii, 167 pp, plates. "During the last quarter of the nineteenth century, George Gissing wrote twenty two published and at least five unpublished novels, three other prose works of book length, some literary criticism and well over a hundred short stories. A hundred years later interest in his work continues unabated. His exploration, in fiction, of the social fabric of late Victorian Britain resulted in a whole set of books that even in their instabilities retain their interest because of the immediacy of Gissing's engagement with important, if intractable, contemporary material. This bibliography provides a detailed up-to-date and systematic description of Gissing's publishing career, based upon an examination of countless copies of the books themselves as well as of the archive of largely unpublished autograph material which, scattered as it is among North American and British libraries, has a direct bearing upon Gissing's relations with publishers, editors and literary agents. Because the earlier and shorter version (George Gissing: A Bibliography, 1975) is out of print, the author has extensively revised his account of Gissing's publishing career, retaining the emphasis on first editions and first appearances, but extending the treatment of reissues during Gissing's lifetime, and adding entirely new sections on the short stories and on Gissing criticism during the last ten years, as well as a new introduction. The bibliography is not an enumeration of reissues up to the present day, but an account of Gissing's writing life in terms of the composition and publication of the works he produced. As a work of reference, it is intended as much for the general reader and student as for the antiquarian bookseller or bibliophile." - from the blurb. Near Fine in slightly faded dustwrapper with creasing and a chip near the head of the spine-panel. Seller Inventory # ABE-58889
