El Señor Presidente

Miguel Ángel Asturias · Ediciones Costa-Amic (Bartolomé Costa-Amic), Mexico City, Mexico · 1946 (published 30 August 1946, Mexico City)

Points: Costa-Amic imprint (NOT Losada/Buenos Aires); published 30 August 1946; self-financed by Asturias with support from his family (his mother's funds), after the manuscript was rejected by other houses; issued privately in wrappers; the text carries the numerous uncorrected typographical errors of the original setting and LACKS the substantial authorial revisions later introduced for the definitive Losada text of 1952
