A scholarly edition of the short fiction of Henry James, comprising nine tales including 'The Aspern Papers' and 'The Liar'.

"In this researched book, David Supino has produced a 'bibliographical catalogue' of his particularly extensive private collection of early editions of James, shedding new light on a number of crucial areas. It is only in fairly recent times that scholars and book collectors have come to appreciate fully the interest and significance of the dust jackets of early editions. Ignored in many earlier bibliographies, Supino provides much valuable new material revealing the transition of dust jackets from a protective medium to an important marketing and advertising tool. His book also unearths new information on early Colonial re-issues and the first appearance of American editions. This book provides a full description of each edition in Supino's collection including transcription of the title page, collation, contents, binding and inserted ads, inscriptions, bookplates, binders' and booksellers' tickets and commentary. His book will be an invaluable resource for bibliophiles and Henry James fans alike."--BOOK JACKET.
