1 Firbank, Ronald The Flower Beneath the Foot Being a Record of the Early Life of St. Laura de Nazianzi and the Times in which she lived
New York Brentano's 1924 First American Edition Hardcover Very Good- in Very Good- dust jacket 
; 8vo; 5 p.l. & 229 pages; 1924 First US Editon (NY, Brentano's). Publisher's black cloth, lettered in gilt. Pictorial dust jacket (repeating an orange portrait frontispiece by C.R.W. Nevinson. There is a damp mark to the front panel of the dust jacket (with distinct lightening of the grey field, affecting the portrait) which extends to a mark on the front cover (with minor loss of the black, which has faintly transfered to the verso of the dust jacket). The stain does not extend internally (not even to the front paste-down), and apart from this, this is a very good copy, with minor chipping to the edges of the dust jacket, and several short pieces of old cellophane tape applied to the joints and edges of the verso of the dust jacket, which do not show on the recto. With a portrait of the author as a vignette on the title page by Wyndham Lewis, and a special preface to this American edition printed in facsimile of Ronald Firbank's manuscript -- [on three pages following the title page, printed on coated paper -- this preface does not appear in the British edition published the previous year by Grant Richards in London]. First American. This Firbank title was singled out by Cyril Connolly for inclusion in his 100 Key Books of the Modern Movement (see #44, " Of all his books, the worthiest of Forster's praise and Auden's passionate admiration"). See also, Benkovitz A9b; Young 1250.
