Translated by Mary Howitt. James Munroe and Company, Boston 1847. 8vo. VIII+298 pages, complete with halftitlepage + 12 pages of advertisements in the back and 6 ad pages in the front end. Publisher's black cloth with blindtooled decorations and gilt lettering on spine. Spine and hinges carefully renewed, reusing most of the original backstrip. Foxing throughout.

* The first American edition of H.C. Andersen's first official autobiography, following the first British (1847), all based on the German version published earlier the same year. The German and English editions preceded the Danish with almost a century; it was published in 1942. Andersen's autobiography was an important key to his almost explosive international success in the 1840s, closely linked to the publication of his fairy tales. Andersen eagerly followed his American publications but never visited the U.S., Though always fond of travelling, he could not overcome his fear of the Atlantic crossing.
