Childhood, Boyhood, and Youth. by TOLSTOY, Leo - [1912]: Translated with an Introduction by C. J. Hogarth.

London: J. M. Dent & Sons, Ltd; E. P. Dutton & Co., New York,, [1912]. First Everyman's Library edition, first impression, in the publisher's deluxe quarter pigskin, the most expensive of the four bindings in which it was issued, and produced in smaller numbers than the others. The remaining three binding styles that the classic reprint series offered in its earliest years were full cloth, full leatherette, and a library binding.
Tolstoy's autobiographical novel trilogy, originally published as Detstvo (1852), Otrochestvo (1854), and Yunost' (1856), was the work that first brought him literary acclaim. Octavo. Original brown quarter pigskin, spine lettered in gilt within frame incorporating Everyman's Library monogram, brown cloth sides ruled in blind, linen endpapers, edges brown. Decorative title page and textual frontispiece with intricate woodcut floral border in the arts and crafts style. A little light sunning and rubbing, couple of nicks to fore margins of clean contents: a very good copy. Terry Seymour, A Printing History of Everyman's Library 1906-1982, 2011, p. 6.
