Place of publication: New York
Language: eng
Format: Hardcover
Number of pages: 220
Notes: This is the true First American Edition of this title. It is made up of the sheets of the British First edition with a cancel (replacement) title page, and with a color frontispiece added. It is slight wider than the 1928 American edition printed in the U.S. by Harper & Brothers. I am not sure, but I suspect that the same dust jacket was used for both the 1927 and 1928 editions published by Harper & Brothers. This edition is found in a cloth spine over paper boards similar to the British First Edition (this cloth/boards issue is reported to not have a frontispiece added), as well as the yellow/orange cloth shown that is similar to the 1928 U.S. edition. The orange cloth binding is probably a later issue binding. This edition has "PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN" at the bottom of the reverse of the title page. It also has Printed in Great Britain as well as the printers information at the bottom of the last page of text.
