Mountain Interval

New York: Henry Holt and Company, 1916. First Edition. 8vo. Original blue cloth with lettering in gilt. Spine ends and corners somewhat softened and rubbed with foxing to page edges and prelims with occasional spot in text. Internally sound. Lacking dust jacket. Very Good. First issue with line 6 repeated on p. 88 and ‘Come’ for ‘Gone’ on p. 93. One of 4,000 copies, Frost’s third collection was his first to be issued primarily in the US, with his previous volumes published in London by David Nutt. Featuring ‘The Road Not Taken’ and ‘Birches’, this collection further established Frost’s reputation for understated verse, casting complex philosophical and emotional content in the rough-hewn language of rural New England.
