The Nick Adams Stories

US Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, 1972 is the true first and the edition collected — the census claim stands. The volume gathers 24 stories and sketches, eight of them previously unpublished, and appeared a decade after Hemingway's death. No contemporaneous British edition is documented in the sources consulted; the census claim of 'no UK counterpart' is consistent with what was found, but this is an absence of evidence rather than a positive bibliographical finding, and no UK-precedence question arises in any case.
