Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. With illustrations by Sylvaine Sauvage (illustrator). 1st Edition. Smaller quarto of 10-1/2 inches, in original orange cardboard slipcase. (NO dust jacket, as issued.) Inscribed "For Margaret Sparling / 'Maggie Dear' / from her admiring and grateful friend / MFK Fisher / Whittier 15/VI/52" in black ink to the otherwise blank FFE. A Margaret May Sparling (1909-1980) married Kenneth Edward Kingman in Los Angeles in 1929, though as she would presumably have been "Margaret Kingman" in 1952, we can't be sure this is the addressee. 471 pp. including Translator's Postscript.
