W. B. Yeats, A Life. I. The Apprentice Mage 1865 - 1914.

Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1997. First Edition. Hardcover. Large octavo. xxxii + 640pp. Navy cloth with gilt titling to spine, colour illustrated endpapers, b&w illustrations, end-notes and index. The first volume of one of the most recent, and extensive biographies of Golden Dawn member, W.B. Yeats; this volume covering Yeats' early years through which the search for supernatural wisdom forms a constant thread. A highly acclaimed work, it obviously covers Yeats involvment with the original Golden Dawn, but seems to largely ignore his ongoing activities with Felkin's group in the years that followed the break up. Appears unused, a tight bright unmarked Fine copy in a very lightly rubbed mylar covered near Fine dust jacket. (Dust jacket not clipped). Item #67387
