Ambrose Bierce\'s Tales of Soldiers and Civilians 1st Edition 1891:
$300.00
As a teenager, Bierce served as a drummer boy with the Union Amy in the Civil War. He was one of few writers of fiction about the war who were actually there. The horror was real for him. Bierce was also a great writer of horror stories in the civilian world.
This is the first edition of this collection of stories. See the page opposite the copyright page for Bierce\'s comment on this edition. The collection was not published by a standard publisher until its popularity led \"one of the chief publishing houses of the country:\" the Modern Library to republish it in 1927.
As someone noted years ago--exceptionally scarce and desirable.
