Description

8vo, illustrated, rebound in full red morocco with an inlaid illustration of a soldier on the front cover. A fine copy in custom-made slipcase. A fine copy in custom-made slipcase First edition, first issue, of Graves' controversial autobiography, with the unauthorized Sassoon poem on pp. 341-343, which caused this issue to be withdrawn. One of 5000 copies printed, of which fewer than 100 copies were once estimated to have been issued in this state: judging by the frequency with which the first issue appears on the market, an egregious under-estimation. Higginson A32a.
