Faber, 1961.

Special edition with new introduction by T.S.Eliot. Number 34 of 70 copies signed by both Eliot and Jones. Publisher's blue buckram with grey blocking and gilt lettering, in original plain glassine. A fine copy with just a trace of wear to the edge of the gilt and a few marks to the glassine.

This deluxe reissue of Jones's most celebrated work, which takes the form of an epic prose poem set in the first world war, based on the author's own experiences in the trenches was published at the behest of Faber director T.S. Eliot, who admired the work from its first publication in 1937 and in whose introduction he lauds the book as "a work of genius".
