First U.S. appearance, first edition thus. One of the last essays written by Conrad before his death.

Later collected in the posthumously published LAST ESSAYS (1926). Conrad's essay appears on pages 239 - 274 and is copiously illustrated with photographs both full plate and in the text. Spine ends creased and a little soiled otherwise bright and very good to near fine with few scrapes to photo on p.260. Seller Inventory # 71773
