Buy this book on-line TED HUGHES : The Martyrdom of Bishop Farrar. (SIGNED)Richard Gilbertson, 'The Manuscript Series', Crediton, 1970
The second separate edition, corrected. Limited to 100 numbered copies, signed and dated by the author (this being #42). Royal 8vo. [8pp] stapled into card wrappers featuring a reproduction of a sixteenth-century woodcut taken from Foxe's 'Book of Martyrs', repeated on the first leaf. The wrappers lightly tanned and with a touch of light edge-creasing, and some surface abrasion to the verso of the first leaf where is appears a bookplate has been carefully removed. These are either new staples, or they were at some point repositioned. A nice, crisp copy of this uncommon item, somewhat more so that the uncorrected first issue (the poem was included in Hughes' debut collection 'The Hawk in the Rain'. The original printing of this first separate edition contained an error, two transposed lines, and so was succeeded by this corrected version, produced in a slightly different binding).
