MAUGHAM, W. Somerset - A Writer's Notebook

New York, Cosmopolitan Magazine, 1949. Hardcover. 8vo. Blue cloth with gilt lettering (issued without dust jacket). 133pp. Very good. Quite mild binding wear only, else tight and internally near fine. Attractive true first edition, with "Limited Edition" on half-title verso, of these jottings about the writer's early years, "preprinted" from the condensed serialized version and preceding an expanded trade edition published by Doubleday later in 1949. Enjoyable insights from the incredibly prolific English novelist/short story writer/playwright/man of letters (1874-1965) covering the years 1892 to 1944. .
