With 2pp publisher's advertisement at end. Osgood's 'Wessex Novels' is the first uniform and complete edition of Hardy's works. 'The edition is an important one. The text of every novel was thoroughly and carefully revised the topography names and distances corrected where necessary chapters frequently retitled and much rewriting done. In addition Hardy prepared a special preface for each volume' Purdy p.281. Each of the sixteen original volumes has an etched frontispiece by Macbeth-Raeburn depicting a scene from the novel drawn on the spot; in this case 'The Castle of Mai-Dun' and a map of Wessex drawn by Hardy himself. In terms of book production these are undoubtedly the finest trade editions of Hardy's works. Although published by Hardy's subsequent publisher Macmillan the present volume was produced in matching format as 'Volume XVIII' to retain uniformity the last volume of Hardy's work to be so issued. 'A Changed Man' collects for the first time twelve short stories that had been published previously in serial form together with a new short Prefatory Note by the author. In addition to the three tales mentioned in the title the others are 'Alicia's Diary' 'The Grave by the Handpost' 'Enter a Dragoon' 'A Tryst at an Ancient Earthwork' 'What the Shepherd saw' 'A Committee-Man of the Terror' 'Master John Horseleigh Knight' 'The Duke's Reappearance' and 'A Mere Interlude'. The stories date from 1881 'What the Shepherd saw'; the last two 'A Changed Man' and 'Enter a Dragoon' both 1899 mark the close of Hardy's work in prose fiction.

Housed in a custom cloth chemise and slipcase. $2500.First edition of this collection of a dozen of Hardy's short stories including his lengthy gothic tale ""The Romantic Adventures of a Milkmaid"" with photogravure frontispiece in very scarce original dust jacket.""A Changed Man is a group of 'a dozen minor novels' that had lain uncollected in English and American periodicals half of them for a quarter of a century or more. They 'would probably have never been collected by me at this time of day' Hardy wrote 'if frequent reprints of some of them in America and elsewhere had not set many readers inquiring for them in a volume'É There is much of interest in the volume: the introduction of soldiers and the use of historical setting in the tales written in the '90s when The Dynasts was taking shape; the snatches of reminiscence and family tradition in 'A Tryst at an Ancient Earthwork' and 'The Duke's Reappearance'; the reflection in 'Alicia's Diary' of Hardy's Italian journey a few months beforeÉ"" Purdy 155-56.
