First Edition
HC. Condition: nf/good. 1st Amer. ed. Second printing of the first edition. Contains critical essays and portraits of writers as well as historical figures. A sound copy which has apparently gotten damp at some point, causing slight wrinkling to the pages along with some very, minor staining to the corners of a few pages near the lower spine. The book still remains a very readable volume, as no real structural harm has been done. 221pp.
