Praise to the End!

Theodore Roethke · Doubleday (New York) · 1951

US Doubleday (1951) is the true first with no prior edition. Some dealer listings cite a print run of roughly 750 copies, but this is not a stated limitation on the copyright page, so treat the copyright-page 'First Edition' statement and the grey/black cloth as the reliable identification points.
