FATHER DAMIEN
1890. An Open Letter to the Reverend Doctor Hyde of Honolulu. London: Chatto and Windus 1890. Original brown wrappers. First Trade Edition consisting of 1000 copies preceded only by 25 copies issued in Sydney and 30 issued in Edinburgh. On the Stevensons' voyage to the South Pacific they had visited the leper colony on Molokai founded by Dr. Damien who had himself died of leprosy the year before they arrived. A missionary named Hyde wrote a letter denouncing Damien; this piece is Stevenson's open and irate reply to Hyde. It was first published 25 copies when the Stevenson party arrived in Sydney; Stevenson boasted of it as being blatantly libellous. This is a very good copy of this fragile piece a few wrapper corners chipped away some wear to the fragile spine. Beinecke 510; Princeton 44B. <br/><br/> unknown books
