Out of the Storm: Uncollected Fantasies
first edition Hardcover
1975 · West Kingston, RI
by Hodgson,William Hope
West Kingston, RI: Donald M. Grant, 1975. Original black cloth with gilt titling on spine. Dust jacket unpriceclipped, with small tears at head and foot of spine, and what appears to be a small burn on the upper edge of upper panel (a cinder from a pipe?). More curious than disfiguring. The dust jacket was designed by the well-known Hannes Bok. This collection of stories is prefaced by a very long biography and appraisal of the science fiction historian, Sam Moskowitz, and and very interesting in and of itself, as he calls Hodgson "The supreme master of imaginative horror in science fiction." Hodgson was born in 1877 and died at Ypres in 1918, another literary war casualty. . First. Cloth. Good/Fair. Illus. by Fabian, Stephen. 8vo. Trade. (Inventory #: WN590159)
