A very good copy (for its age) of this 3rd edition, in a single volume, of this remarkable collection of letters, edited by Charles Strachey and with notes by Annette Calthrop, and in a good Dust Jacket (for its age). The first Methuen edition was published in 1901 in 2 volumes, and the second, also in 2 volumes in 1924. This is the first single volume Methuen edition.
