Item description from seller

With most of the two dust jackets in a slightly worn and stained cardboard slipcase, as well as four-page biographical pamphlet entitled "Isaac Rieman Baxley, A Sketch," tipped-in "Isaac Rieman Baxley was born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1850, the son of Henry Willis Baxley and Mary Virginia Baxley. He had one brother, Claude. Although the family was not Roman Catholic, Isaac was educated at St. Ignatius de Loyola College (now Loyola University Maryland). He passed the bar before the age of twenty-one. Baxley said this was his first legal crime , but the age question was not asked of him. Like many other poets, he practiced little and soon abandoned his profession because he wished to write. He traveled a good deal, traveling to Europe twice, and from 1878, he lived in California, making his home in Santa Barbara. The city council appointed him to a special board for the assigning of street names in Montecito. He commenced to write very early, and "no amount of interference could, at any time, have prevented him from pursuing an action over which he had no abiding control." His opinion of poetry is that "the old issues, customs and manners therein will soon resign themselves to the new movements and aspirations discerned in all spiritual things, and that the Genius of Poetry is ever the furthest sighted in all human eyes; and that her lips are already beginning to open, singing the things she sees. There is no death to Poetry, but those who can not as yet see whither she is moving have said so, but she does not listen to what they say; they, in time, will listen to her again and again.".
