Wolf Song

US Knopf 1927 is the true first; the Knopf imprint of the period reads "New York and London" (Borzoi Books), so there is no separate earlier UK edition to weigh. Both issues of the first edition are collected and should be named together: the signed limited issue of 100 copies on Borzoi all-rag paper, and the first trade issue -- the trade being sought because its pictorial jacket is very uncommon. "First thus" traps, one of them directly relevant to this shelf: the Grosset & Dunlap reprint, and the 1936 Knopf omnibus Followers of the Sun, which gathers Wolf Song with The Blood of the Conquerors and In Those Days. The omnibus is a first of the collection only, not of Wolf Song. The Bison Books / University of Nebraska Press paperback is a much later reissue.
