An early Cowley publication, indeed his first in the U.S., preceded by the Paris publication of his "Racine". Although no physical evidence or marking supports the assertion, a laid-in slip identifies this copy of the book as having come from the library of the fantasy writer and Arkham House publisher Donald Wandrei.
