Enough Rope

Dorothy Parker · Boni & Liveright, New York · 1926

American-only true first; the census claim is confirmed. Boni & Liveright, New York, 1926 is the first edition of Parker's first book and her first and most collected verse volume, gathering verses previously printed in Life, Vanity Fair, The New Yorker and The New York World. No British edition holds or contests priority, and there is no original-language question — Parker wrote in English and published first in New York. There is accordingly no UK-vs-US precedence trap here; the only precedence question a cataloguer faces is printing, not edition.
