Micah Clarke
Arthur Conan Doyle · Longmans, Green & Co. (London) · 1889
The English Longmans first edition holds priority. The New York-bound copies were run off from imported English sheets rather than an independent American typesetting, making them a binding variant of the English edition rather than a true separate American first edition; Harper & Brothers' authorized American edition followed later, issued first in wrappers in the Franklin Square Library in 1889 and then in cloth in 1894.
