Fifty-five pages of easily accessible poetry, with the majority of the poems only a page in length, they hit you like a captive photo-image. This copy inscribed, signed to his dear friend R. Dixon Smith—biographer of Carl Jacobi. "To R. Dixon Smith, to keep him from rummaging the bottom of the North Atlantic," Joseph Payne Brennan." If not rare, a very scarce book. Fine in d.j.
