For private circulation only. Presentation copy: "To Wm. Archer from W. E. H. & R. L. S. 23/10/97" in Henley's hand. William Archer was the most distinguished dramatic critic of his day. It is sometimes forgotten that late in life he wrote "The Green Goddess," a play which had a spectacular success in the '20s.
