About This Item
New York: The Macmillan Company, 1920. Reprint. Later printing. 8vo. Publisher's original decorated yellow cloth, titled and decorated in black to spine and front board. Some light scuffing and edgewear, bumping to the spine ends, and some superficial grubbiness here and there, the hallmark of books bound in yellow cloth. Internally clean; inscribed with considerable flourish by the author to the front flyleaf:
"Good Wishes to [Karen M. Bailey 408 Walnut Place] from Nicholas Vachel Lindsay, Syracuse, New York , May 9th 1921"
A popular collection of poetry, some of which dealt with American involvement in WW1.
