In 1911, Lawrence was introduced to Edward Garnett, a publisher's reader who acted as a mentor and became a valued friend, as did his son David. David Garnett wrote the preface to this book, a reminiscence in which he tells that the stories and sketches in Love Among The Haystacks were written by Lawrence in July and August of 1912 and then passed on to Edward Garnett, who tried to place them without success, and then onto him. David had read the book in manuscript form when it was written and had been with Lawrence into 'The Chapel Among the Mountains', had slept out with him in 'The Hay-hut Among the Mountains' and writes of the tickling of the hay, the crashing thunder, and the bitter cold of the winds sweeping off the glaciers that all came back to him.

Printed on Auvergne hand-made paper at the Curwen Press. Though these stories were first published here shortly after Lawrence's death, most of them were written very early in his career, in 1912. He had sent them to David Garnett's father the editor Edward Garnett, who failed to get them published at the time. "After Lawrence's death they were brought to me to publish: and they aroused in me vivid memories of my twentieth year" (from David Garnett's reminiscence, p. [v]). Roberts A56a.
