Buy this book on-line WILLA SIBERT CATHER : Alexander's BridgesWilliam Heinemann, London, 1912
First UK and first illustrated edition of the author's most uncommon first novel. 8vo. 182pp. Brown cloth lettered in gold at the spine and in black at the upper board with a blind-stamped border. With a tissue-guarded frontispiece illustration by F.Graham Cootes and three further plates, none of which appear in the US edition. A scattering of spotting to edges and preliminary leaves, and to some occasional text leaves throughout. A nice bright copy. Originally serialised in three parts under the title 'Alexander's Masquerade' in McClure's, the first US bookform issue appeared in April 1912 with this UK issue following three months later (with 'Bridge' pluralised in the title). Crane does not note a 32-page publisher's catalogue bound in at the rear. Although several copies have been identified which do have this catalogue, this copy does not but we are unable to determine a priority.. Book. Book Condition: Very Good.
