First edition, first printing. Publisher's original red cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the first state dustwrapper. A very near fine copy, the binding square and firm with just a little bumping at the spine tips, the cloth and gilt are bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the lightly rubbed and nicked, price-clipped dustwrapper that is a touch darkened to the spine and folds and otherwise without loss or tears. An exceptional example, scarce thus. A counter-factual collection of essays by leading historians and authors covering important events in history and speculating on what might have happened if their outcomes had been different. Winston Churchill contributes "If Lee Had Not Won the Battle of Gettysburg". Both the book and the dustwrapper are in the primary state. Some copies in a reduce sized 'variant' binding of green cloth are known to have been bound with trimmed first edition sheets, and issued in a newly designed dustwrapper, which is identical to that of the 1932 re-issue.
