Among the first of the authors books to be published in the U.S. While this copy does indeed have a Table of Contents page that is placed after the printed facsimile letter in Kipling's hand and a title page as Lovell Coryell & Co. along with their address and no date printed at the base of same and furthermore has a binding where the base of the cloth spine is blank that is not stamped with any publisher information all which seem to be indices that suggest that this is a later issue this copy not only has a printed page following the half-title page which reads in total "This edition of my collected writings is issued in America with my cordial sanction / Rudyard Kipling / London March 1891" but also has the portrait frontispiece which is said NOT to be part of the Lovell and Coryell issue !!! Also it is not quite clear as to why the Lovell and Coryell issue does not "precede" the United States Book Company issue if in fact the United States Book Company is the successor "to" the John W.
