"Whatever is begotten born and dies. Caught in that sensual music all neglect monuments of unaging intellect": First edition of William Butler Yeats' The Tower; in the rare original dust jacket
YEATS, William Butler [W.B.].
The Tower.
London: Macmillan and Co. Limited, 1928.
First edition of what is generally considered Yeats' single most important volume, one of 2000 copies. Octavo, original publisher's elaborately gilt-decorated pictorial olive green cloth with Thomas Sturge Moore's iconic engraving of Thoor Ballylee. Near fine in the rare original dust jacket which is in very good condition, bookplate to the front pastedown. A very nice example of this important work.
Price: $2,000.00 Item Number: 146520
