First UK edition with a facsimile dust jacket. Jonathan Cape, London 1928. 8 vo., 222 pp.
Scarce copy of one of Hemingway's most important and compelling early writing. The first UK edition is rarer than the American edition, even it was issued a year later. These 14 short stories show the young Hemingway emerging as America's finest short story writer.
Book is in very good condition except some fading to spine and to the edges of the boards. Some dusting with miniscule spotting to the top edge of the text block which is slightly skewed. Facsimile dust jacket is new.
