The Tower
Macmillan, 1928.
First edition. Original green cloth, with a design by Thomas Sturge Moore blocked in gilt of the titular Tower, Yeats's Ballylee Castle, reflected in a pool of water, in the original pictorial dustwrapper of the same design. A fine copy in a near fine dustwrapper with just a trace of wear to the corners and an invisible closed ear to the base of the spine.
An unusually nice copy of a work that contains "the greatest poetry of Yeats in his difficult later manner... [It] constitutes a peak in English poetry" (Connolly, 100 Key Books Of The Modern Movement)
