What Our Customers Say...

Description

Decorative Binding, First Edition, Illustrated, Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

A very smart edition of Susan Hale’s ‘Inkings for Thinklings’.

Hale originally created and bound ‘Inklings for Thinklings’ herself  for a benefit fundraiser for the Sanitation Commission in Boston in 1865. The one of a kind book was then sold off to the father of Caroline P. Atkinson. Ms Atkinson arranged for a facsimile reproduction of the original work to be published as this edition in 1919.

Susasn Hale (1833 – 1910) was an American author, traveller, and artist. She travelled extensively, sketching and visiting the galleries of the world.

Containing numerous delightful illustrations from Hale.
