Sauk City WI: Arkham House, 1949. First edition. Hardcover. Fine/fine. A potpourri of odd bits of Lovecraft essays and drafts, with some articles about him. Derleth thought at the time that this might be the last Lovecraft book from Arkham House, aside from the SELECTED LETTERS: he was not quite right about that. A nice copy of the book, in an exceptional dustjacket: clean and tight with minimal spine bumping and no fading or rubbing on the unclipped jacket. The endpapers show some burning from the cheap glue used in binding the book. A copy to grace any shelf. From the title essay: "I have no active dislike for dogs, any more than I have for monkeys, humans, tradesmen, cows, sheep or pterodactyls; but for the cat I have entertained a particular like and respect ever since the earliest days of my infancy." A man of discerning tastes indeed. TW
