Old Jules

Mari Sandoz · Little, Brown and Company (Boston) — issued as an Atlantic Monthly Press book · 1935

US Little, Brown and Company, Boston, 1935 is the true first, issued as an Atlantic Monthly Press book after Old Jules won the Atlantic Monthly non-fiction prize for 1935 — Sandoz's first published book. The census claim is correct. The first UK edition is Chapman and Hall, London, 1937, two years later: a reprint rather than a competing first, collected only as the first British appearance. A German-language issue (Atlantis Verlag, Zürich) is later still.
