ASK A QUESTION

A scarce collection of seven Ukrainian folk tales published in independent Ukraine.

The publisher 'Ukrains'ka Knyzhka' was based in Lviv and was active during 1917-1922. Founded by Antin Krushel'nyts'kyi (1878 - 1937), editor, publisher, teacher, short-term minister of education and as many Ukrainian officials, executed by Bolsheviks. They produced books in a number of cities, printing literature and textbooks in Ukrainian for primary schools and children. There was a huge demand for learning material in Ukrainian after decades of prohibition and the number of books published in the native language far outweighed those in Russian in 1918. Not found in WorldCat.

First edition, 16mo (17.7 x 11 cm); contemporary ink ownership inscription to p.3; original printed wrappers, ink inscriptions to upper and lower wrappers, stain to spine and gutters,more so to preliminary leaves, a good copy.
