About This Item
N.p., n.d., 1908. Oblong 8vo, 7 leaves (the first and last blank); printed from typescript; string-bound into hand-lettered tan paper wrappers. Possibly a unique book. The author is known only by an inscription on the front wrapper: "To E. W. H. on her eighty-second birthday, January 25th, 1908. / M. A. De W. Howe." The inscription is marred a bit by an ink pressing, but it is entirely legible. A 64-line poem on finding Christ on earth. E. W. H. is clearly Eliza Whitney Howe (1826-1909), the third wife of the Rev. Bishop Mark Anthony DeWolf(e) Howe, married in 1857. And the presenter and poet is Mark Anthony De Wolfe Howe, Jr., Eliza's son, and a prominent editor and author, winner of a Pulitzer Prize in 1925. Not found in OCLC. The poem is likely unpublished.
