English Music

Peter Ackroyd · Hamish Hamilton (London) · 1992

The UK Hamish Hamilton edition of 1992 is the true first. The US Knopf edition of 1992 states on its title-page verso that it was 'Originally published in Great Britain by Hamish Hamilton,' confirming UK precedence. A Franklin Library full-leather limited edition of 1992 is a separate special issue, not the trade first.
