The Prussian Officer and Other Stories, Lawrence's first collection
of short stories, was published in England in 1914 and in the USA
in 1916. It contains some of the greatest stories he ever wrote:
'Odour of Chrysanthemums', 'Daughters of the Vicar', 'The Prussian
Officer', and 'The White Stocking', with settings ranging from the
mining community of Eastwood to Germany before the First World War.
The text of this new edition is based on Lawrence's manuscripts,
typescripts and corrected proofs, and is the first to remove the
corruptions introduced by copyists, typists and printers. The
introduction sets out the history of each story and of the
collection itself. There is a textual apparatus recording variant
readings and full notes explain historical references and other
allusions, dialect forms and foreign words. Two important
appendixes print the earliest surviving fragment of 'Odour of
Chrysanthemums' and the 1911 version of 'Daughters of the Vicar'.
