  • first
New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons,, 1899. First edition, first printing, first issue, with the 4pp. publisher's terminal advertisements headed "By Anna Fuller", as called for. With a compliments slip signed by Bierce (in pale purple pencil) tipped to the front pastedown. "These short, titled fables, all in prose, point sardonic morals, one after another... Heading any tabulation would be politicians (including inept diplomats), closely followed by policemen, lawyers, and judges... Utterly typical, here, are Bierce's criticism of spiritual-intellectual pretensions and alleged juridical-political pomposity, and his lonely praise of an anti-American military-political pragmatist [the Filipino revolutionary Emilio Aguinaldo]" (Robert L. Gale, An Ambrose Bierce Companion, 2001, pp. 94-95). Octavo. Original tan cloth, spine and front cover lettered and decorated in gilt, red, blue and black. Spine toned, some marks to covers, otherwise a very good copy. BAL 1120.
