Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
2 vols., 8vo., First Edition, on hand-made paper; original brown buckram, gilt tops, uncut, marbled endpapers. EDITION LIMITED TO 520 COPIES. Frederic Manning's masterpiece, published anonymously (as was the expurgated version 'Her Privates We' a year later). Highly praised by many of those who shared Manning's front line experiences (including Lawrence and Sassoon) and the work as a whole found favour with men of letters, among them Hemingway and Bennett. Today the work is recognised as the finest novel to emerge from the Great War, and one of the very finest in the literature of warfare. 'No praise could be too sheer for this book' (T.E. Lawrence). Published 1929 although spine states 1930. With slip case (slightly torn and water damaged). Professionally repaired tear on pp. 385/6 in vol 2 (see pictures).
