A Handy Guide for Beggars, Especially Those of The Poetic Fraternity
New York: The Macmillan Company, 1920. Later Printing. Octavo. 19.5cm. Publisher's blue decorated paper covered boards. 205pp. Light wear and scuffing to corners and spine ends, small split to head of rear spine hinge, fading to spine with dulling of the titles; internally clean, with a lavish inscription by the author to the front flyleaf. A very good, strong copy.
A unsurprisingly beautfully written and evocative series of musings and observations on the plight of the poor and downtrodden, gathered from observations made by Lindsay as he wandered America, equally as penniless as te people he was writing about. Inscribed to the flyleaf:
"Good Wishes to Christina Brandt, Nicholas Vachell Lindsay, April 22, 1922, Harrisburg Penn."
A nicely inscribed reprint edition of poetic evocations of life on the gritty margins.
Price: $150.00
