The stage play became the basis for Barrie's 1911 novel Peter and Wendy (later published under the title Peter Pan and Wendy in 1921, with subsequent publications using the title Peter Pan). In 1904, Barrie adapted the story into his most famous work, Peter Pan or the Boy Who Wouldn't grow up, a play which debuted in London and a later a novel by Hodder & Stoughton in the United Kingdom and Charles Scribner's Sons in the United States. In the play and later novel, Peter Pan as a character is portrayed a few years older than the Peter Pan of Kensington Gardens. Bright green buckram (full-cloth) boards, crisp black cover and spine titles, design, light shelf wear. Ranging in tone from whimsical fantasy to dark social commentary, the book achieved longevity due to the several chapters featuring Peter Pan, a magical boy who escaped mortality as an infant and, since then, carelessly cavorted with fairies on the mythical island of Neverland. This is the Peter Pan who plays in Kensington Gardens retold by May Byron with the permission of the author and illustrated by the inimitable Arthur Rackham. ![]() In near fine condition with a touch of rubbing to the crown and foot of the spine.Ī series of short episodes in contemporary London, Sir James Matthew Barrie's most famous and enduring character Peter Pan, first appeared in The Little White Bird.
