Description

Now First Printed from the Original MS, with a preface by G. K. Chesterton. London: Chatto & Windus, 1922.
​

This is the first publication of Love and Freindship. Very rare in original dust jacket because the printed wrapper around this prettily-bound edition was meant to be tossed by the consumer in order to display the gilt-stamped boards of heavy red paper. Colored pictorial endpapers with Cassandra Austen’s illustrations for The History of England. VERY GOOD+ condition, in a FAIR only wrapper (see photos) [Gilson F3].
