A High Wind in Jamaica

Richard Hughes · Harper & Brothers (New York), as 'The Innocent Voyage' · 1929

Later American printings and the 1944 Lynd Ward-illustrated Limited Editions Club / Heritage Press edition are not the first; the 1929 Harper first is identified by the 'First Edition' statement and the quarter blue-cloth / patterned-board binding. Reprints generally carry the retitled 'A High Wind in Jamaica' and lack the Harper first-edition statement.
