Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First U.S. edition. This story of a conquering King (who is very like Alexander the Great) was originally published in a volume of stories in 1930. Here, it becomes the text of a picture book with big, bold pictures by the illustrator and graphic artist, Gaynor Chapma…n. Alternate spreads are color and black & white. First published, same year, in the UK by Hamish Hamilton, this US edition is made from the British sheets and dust jacket with just the publisher details changed. A remarkably fine copy in a very good, price-clipped dust jacket that has a little brown spotting. Gaynor Chapman (illustrator).
