Ex-library with external labels removed; spine nicked at front head corner, exceedingly clean and sharp otherwise with sound binding and no evidence of use. From the Ernest L. Martin collection with his bookplate. 'This volume focuses on the problems researchers face when using (Byzantine) Greek, Syriac and Arabic sources together for the reconstruction of Near Eastern history from 400-c. 800. Contributions to the volume set the stage for a critical re-reading and revisionist interpretations of selected sources in the various cultural and literary traditions. The volume thus brings together neighbouring disciplines in ways that shed new light on this vitally important time in history. 1.

8vo, 246x166mm), [xvi adverts], 377-560, [4 adverts]p. Lawrence's short story occupying pages 461 - 469. Original printed wrappers, faded at the edges, the spine replaced with near-contemporary paper of a similar colour, a small piece torn (without text loss) from the head-fore corner of the final two advertisement leaves. Preserved in a modern cloth covered solander box. The first publication of one of D.H. Lawrence's earliest short stories, in this case a tale which had been written in the summer of 1911 although this published version differs slightly from the manuscript and concerns two sisters who meet after being apart for some time and, inevitably I suppose, one of them takes to a young swain. Other contents include contributions from John Masefield, John Galsworthy, George Moore, &c., and a portrait of Masefield by William Strang.
