The book maintains exceptional structural integrity and remains remarkably bright and attractive for its age. The original red cloth boards are entirely unfaded, and the gilt lettering and Soho Bibliographies fox vignette to the spine remain crisp and unoxidised, demonstrating an absence of shelf-wear or long-term light exposure. The binding is tight and square, with hinges fully intact. Internally, the pages are clean, unmarked, and free from the heavy foxing commonly found in this vintage, presenting a tidy and highly readable text block. The accompanying dust jacket is firmly intact with its original colouring, showing only the most microscopic signs of careful storage to the extremities and some very faint dusting to the rear panel, perfectly justifying its Near Fine grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCatalogue Note:\u003c\/b\u003e This is the Third Edition, Revised, of Sir Geoffrey Keynes's definitive bibliography of Rupert Brooke, originally published in 1954 and issued here in its updated 1964 form. Issued as part of the esteemed 'Soho Bibliographies' series, the volume is bound in the publisher’s signature red cloth and features the iconic gilt fox device on the spine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe text is supplemented by four collotype reproductions and eight line reproductions of title pages, offering a comprehensive physical and textual breakdown of Brooke’s literary output. As a staple reference work for both dealers and collectors of early twentieth-century Georgian poetry, complete copies in such well-preserved secondary bindings with their original dust jackets are becoming increasingly uncommon on the open market, particularly in this vibrant state of preservation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompiled by Sir Geoffrey Keynes, an eminent bibliographer and close personal friend of the poet, this authoritative work provides a meticulously detailed catalogue of the writings of Rupert Brooke. Beyond a mere list of publications, the bibliography delves into the intricacies of Brooke’s poetry, prose, and contributions to periodicals, illuminated by reproductions of rare title pages and manuscripts. An indispensable tool for literary scholars and collectors alike, it offers a definitive roadmap to the brief but intensely celebrated literary life of one of England’s most famous First World War poets.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Broadhursts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54507756061011,"sku":"4955","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/1469\/6787\/files\/20260730_235440.jpg?v=1786017321","url":"https:\/\/broadhurstsbooks.com\/products\/a-bibliography-of-the-works-of-rupert-brooke-geoffrey-keynes-3rd-edition","provider":"Broadhursts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
