Stated first edition; part of series "The Living Thoughts Library" edited by Alfred O. Mendel; 154 p., immaculate and unmarked--but with name of former owner on half title page; illustrative end pages; binding firm; red boards in absence of d.j. have slightly bumped corners, and some stainns; spine somewhat faded but gilt lettering is legible.
