Door in the Wall, and Other Stories by H. G. Wells, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. This 1911 collection gathers some of H. G. Wells's finest short fiction. In the title story, a successful politician is haunted all his life by a green door in a white wall that once led him, as a child, into an enchanted garden. The book also includes The Country of the Blind and The Star, two of the most celebrated stories Wells ever wrote.
About this leather-bound edition
Our binders work each cover by hand: genuine leather is fitted over firm boards, the spine is lettered in gold-tone foil and finished with traditional decorative detail. Every copy carries the small natural variations that come with real leather and handcraft.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
