The Holy War

London: Methuen & Co., (1918). Soft Cover. Near Fine. Small single fold pamphlet containing Kipling's poem, The Holy War, an homage to John Bunyan. Black lettering and design on buff stiff paper. A very clean and solid example of this fragile work. The U.S. edition of 1917 predates the U.K. edition. It was done to secure copyright protection and was a very small print run. No date to this U.K. edition but my copy of "An English Collection Of First Editions Of Rudyard Kipling" from the "American Art Association" auction catalogue from 1928 spells it out pretty clearly.

Price: $35.00
