About this Item
Cloth, blindstamped cover device, 8vo, 25 cm, xxxii, 369 pp, ills. 1000 entries in the bibliographies. From the blurb: "In spite of the wealth of material that has been accumulating since Sir Max Beerbohm first started writing more than sixty years ago, there has been no attempt at an all-round critical assessment of 'the greatest living handler of the English language', as he has been called. The present study undertakes this task. In the first chapter the author presents us with a badly needed Life of Sir Max Beerbohm, pictured against the colourful background of contemporary London society and literary circles. The next two chapters are a detailed and penetrating analysis of 'the incomparable Max', both as a man and as a writer, and a critical evaluation of his place in the history of literature. The work ends with a comprehensive Bibliography which includes hundreds of items never recorded before." Includes 131 pages of bibliography. Front free endpaper clipped at upper fore-edge corner, Good in slightly chipped dustwrapper. Publisher's advertisement for the book (1 leaf, printed both sides) laid in. Seller Inventory # ABE-46262
