Remains particularly well-preserved overall; tight, bright, clean and strong. Blind-tooled stamp to rear board. Additional scans upon request. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 310 pages; Physical desc.: 310 p. 19 cm. Subject: England -- Social life and customs -- 20th century -- Fiction. Short stories in English, 1900-1945 - Texts. Summary: His first published collection, these twelve stories were written between 1907 and 1914, during a crucial period of development for Lawrence from which he emerged a leading figure of the modernist movement. Reaching new levels of feeling and experience, these stories range from the tale of a Prussian officer who drives his orderly towards a bloody reckoning, to the strangely exotic elements of 'A Fragment of Stained Glass', and the divisions within society and conflicts of the heart that form the central themes of 'Daughters of a Vicar'. Interweaving individual lives, their happiness, failures and defeats, with the profound forces of nature, Lawrence has created stories of remarkable power and sensitivity. Notes: A rare copy of the 1st edition - 1st issue December 1914. Dark blue cloth with 15 pages of publisher's adverts at rear. Referenced by NCBEL iv, 382 Roberts A6 state 1. 1 Kg.
