First edition, later inscribed and signed by Stanton to first blank with one of his most famous verses (subsequently featured on his tombstone): "This world that we're a-livin' in / Is mighty hard to beat, / You get a thorn with every rose, / But ain't the roses sweet! Frank L Staunton, Atlanta, Feb 24, 1911". Stock a little toned to page edges, but otherwise all in VG internal order. Three small ink marks against titles in contents list. Endpapers splitting a little at hinges, but all holding firm. Gilt to top edge of block. Decorated green boards well worn, esp to head and foot of dulled spine, and lightly bumped to corners.

Description:
London: Archibald Constable And Company, 1894. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Good/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. First UK edition of Stanton's breakthrough collection whose poetry had been "seized upon" according to Joel Chandler Harris in his preface, by the English literary weeklies "as something new and striking. The result of this is that the phenomenal popularity of Mr Stanton' verses in this country [US] finds a hearty echo in Great Britain." Light toning to stock and minor spotting to endpapers but in general VG internal order throughout. Attractive bookplate of John Fairweather to front pastedown and his signature neatly to fep. Tight binding with gilt to top edge of block. Smart red cloth with bright gilt titling, only lightly worn and a little faded to spine. 12mo. xiv, 237pp + (incongruously) US publisher's catalogue to rear.
