RANDOLPH CHURCHILL was the first biographic work produced
by Churchill. The first
edition (1906) was a two volume lavish production
with colour plates, heavy paper, high leading (space between
lines) untrimmed page edges. The
Times Book Club edition used the sheets of
the first edition, trimmed down a bit and bound in cheaper
cloth. This version is actually far scarcer than the first
edition. There was also a 2 volume US
1st edition, very sismilar to the English first,
but top edges gilt and a slightly different cloth binding.
A one
volume edition with the full text but thinner
paper was then issued in 1907 and was in print at least
into the 1920's. A modern
one volume edition was printed by Odhams in
1952, but is far less common than some of the other Odhams
reprints. I have just produced a new
edition to make this work more readily available.
This new edition uses sheets from The Collected Works
and is the same text as the 1952 edition. |
