192824137New York: Macmillan 1928. First edition. 8vo publisher’s original forest-green cloth the spine lettered in gilt. xi 202 pp. A very good very bright copy. FIRST EDITION. Hardy considered that this would probably be his last appearance on the literary stage. He has written that the poems included have been written with reasonable care though considering his age not quite with the zest of a young man new to print. It had become obvious that a lifetime of excellence allowed for what might have once been considered extraordinary to be taken as expected and normative. A collection then of fine poems by a master at his height and greatest reputation. Macmillan hardcover

HARDY'S SIXTH NOVEL PUBLISHED IN 1878. Controversial at the time it became one of Hardy's most popular and acclaimed novels in the 20th century. THE RETURN OF THE NATIVE was written at Riverside Villa Sturnmonster Newton though probably finished at Upper Tooting where the Hardys took a house in March of 1878. The first seven chapters were written by the summer of 1877 and the first two books by November and serial publication was begun in Chatto and Windus's "Belgravia" in January 1878. <br> Hardy had offered the novel to Leslie Stephen for the "Cornhill" magazine but the latter feared that the novel's personal relations were developing into something too dangerous for a family magazine and he refused to begin a serial publication without seeing the completed work. Since this was not possible Hardy's association with Stephen as editor was ended and Smith Elder and Co. agreed on 20 September to publish the finished novel. The book was published in November of 1878 in an edition of only 1000 copies. The Franklin Library hardcover
