Growth of the Soil

Knut Hamsun · Gyldendal (Gyldendalske Boghandel), Kristiania · 1917

Some copies of the Gyldendal London printing are catalogued as 1921; the 27 April 1920 issue is the first English. The Worster translation was reprinted repeatedly by Knopf (later single-volume and subsequent impressions) — these retain the text but lack the 1920 London / two-volume 1921 Knopf points. No prominent book-club issue is documented for the first English.
