The Last Celt: A Bio-Bibliography of Robert Ervin Howard

Rhode Island: Donald M. Grant Publisher, 1976. First Edition. Large Octavo. . 416 pages illustrated with several photographic images of Howard growing up in Texas and images of the several magazines that presented Howard's work. This remarkable book is far more than a biography or bibliography. There are several autobiographical pieces by H.P. Lovecraft and others. The correspondence with his publisher Weird Tales who had sent his manuscript for Wolfshead to an illustrator who may have lost it. Many copies of the Weird Tales issues with Howard articles as well as examples of his handwriting. An essential for the Robert Howard collector. The map of the Hyborian Age. A near fine copy bound in brown cloth, spine lettering gilt, in a very good unclipped pictorial dust jacket with some rubbing to corners and spine ends. A very nice copy. (Inventory #: 032622)
