The Longest Journey

E.M. Forster · William Blackwood & Sons (Edinburgh & London) · 1907

UK true first: William Blackwood & Sons (Edinburgh/London), 1907, Forster's scarce second novel. There was no contemporary American edition; the first American edition did not appear until Alfred A. Knopf (New York), 1922 — a later first American, not a precedence rival to the 1907 Blackwood.
