More Information
Bruce Chatwin, born 1940 and died 1989, was a prize winning
travel writer and novelist. He is best known for his first book, In Patagonia,
widely regarded as something of a modern classic and a cornerstone title, winner
of the Hawthornden Prize and the EM Forster award. It is also the most valuable,
by some way. Collectors need to be aware that it exists in two states. 1st issue
has map illustrated endpapers whereas the second issue has plain white
endpapers. The 2nd, is of course, somewhat less valuable. The other titles are
quite accessible to most and not particularly difficult to acquire. Generally
speaking the English editions precede and are more desirable than their American
counterparts.
