A beautiful exemplar with very little wear to the binding. “Leider weiss die Welt mehr von Schumanns Eigenheiten als von seinen Eigenschasten, da er sich nur Wenigen, nur seinen Liebsten, denen aber ganz und rückhaltlos erschloss, und so find uns als schönes Denkmal diese Briefe geblieben, in denen sich der ganze Reichthum einer ideal angelegten, mit Kraft und Energie ausgestatteten und den höchsten Zielen zustrebenden Jünglingsnatur offenbart.”—Clara Schumann. [Unfortunately, the world knows more of Schumann’s idiosyncrasies than of his qualities . . . ]

'John got a roll of canvas, a reel of packthread, a leather palm-guard and a needle and went down into the hold. He rigged up an electric light in a wire cage and swung it from a hook over his head. The eighteen lay there in a row. They were quite stiff and, when the ship rolled, sometimes an arm would come up and pause until the ship rolled back. But they were in the shadow and he did not watch them much because the sewing was hard work, about an hour to each one. He jabbed his finger with the needle three or four times and that made it harder. When he got one ready, he would put it over his shoulder and stagger up the companionway to the deck. / High above him beside… Read More
