1921 Everychild: A Book Of Verses For Children
What Our Customers Say...
Description
Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce
The second edition.
A very scarce work.
The third published work of Holbrook Jackson, an anthology of verse for children. A charming anthology, compiled "with the idea of appealing to the capacity for wonder and delight in the things of daily life, and the more real things of the imagination".
Including selections of the poetical works of William Blake, Rudyard Kipling, William Morris, Shakespeare, Christina Rossetti, Alfred Lord Tennyson, and more, as well as Holbrook himself.
Compiled by the journalist, writer, and publisher George Holbrook Jackson. A noted journalist who worked for numerous magazines during his career, Jackson is known as being one of the leading bibliophiles of his time. He founded in the Flying Fame Press alongside Ralph Hodgson and Claud Lovat Fraser, and had a long association with English small presses.
One page of adverts to the rear.
Condition
In the publisher's original paper covers. Externally very smart with minimal fading to the spine. Hinges weak. Internally, binding strained in places and the odd page starting, with clean and bright pages.
Very Good
