Description:
London: Reeves and Turner, 1901. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. The first trade edition, inscribed "with the publishers compliments" on the verso of the front flyleaf. With this novel, William Morris (1834-96) is thought to be the first modern writer to unite an imaginary world with the elements of the supernatural, and thus the precursor of much of present-day fantasy literature. It is also important for its exploration of the socialist themes that interested Morris. Octavo: 172 p. Original blue cloth binding, with gilt titles. An especially choice example, with barely a hint of wear. Near fine. Bleiler 372.
