The Wind in the Willows
By Kenneth Grahame

First edition of the first illustrated Arthur Rackham edition published in the United Kingdom, featuring illustrations that originally appeared in the US Limited Edition Club edition in 1940. 97th edition overall. 12 colour plates and 15 line drawings by Rackham.

Original green cloth with lettering to spine in gilt. Some fairly light spotting to fore-edge. Contents are lovely and clean and free from names and inscriptions, save for a touch of very faint spotting to endpapers. Very good or better.

The original and unclipped dust jacket has a few tears to edges with some edge wear and rubbing and fraying, primarily to hinges and folds. A very good copy.
