About the Author:
William Morris (1834-1896) is the man generally credited with originating the genre of modern heroic fantasy. A man of many achievements—poet, novelist, artist, designer, and printer of fine books—he is chiefly remembered as a designer of furniture, tapestries, wallpaper, and other decorative objects, and as the author of a number of novels set in almost-medieval but imaginary worlds of great beauty. These prose romances have influenced many writers of fantasy, such as Lord Dunsany, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and continue to delight new generations of readers with their flights of high adventure in strange lands, their beautiful maidens, and stalwart heroes.

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: Good. B&w Frontis (illustrator). Two proto-fantasy volumes by Morris. The Glittering Plain is G+. Wraps have some mild toning to some of the light-colored areas, with slight rubbing and edgewear; top edge is quite foxed and fore-edge has one small stain. Internally no names, underlining, highlighting, marks, or dogears. Pages are clear and legible, and glued binding remains sound and supple. Golden Wings and Other Stories, also published by Newcastle (ISBN 0878771077) but in 1976, is G. Traces only of rubbing to wrappers and top edge is only slightly foxed, fore- and bottom edges being clean. Again, no names, marks, or dogears internally, with pages clean and a bit brighter than TGP. However, there are two splits toward the end, such that careful handling is required. A few discreet drops of rubber cement would have a remedial effect. Save on shipping -- both volumes sold together as a set. Seller Inventory # 6158
