Edouard Grenier's poem (translated from the original French by Anne Charlotte Lynch Botta) is on pages 1-7. Grenier was a French diplomat and poet. German emigre Charles F. Heartman (1883-1953) was an intriguing bibliophile who started bookstores in New York and New Jersey before relocating to New Orleans in 1935 and to Hattiesburg, Mississippi in 1936 where his failed effort to establish an utopian community evolved to become "The Book Farm," a publishing, research, and bookselling operation. Heartman shifted The Book Farm to Biloxi in 1945 and then to New Braunfels, Texas from 1947 to 1951 where after he returned to New Orleans to start The Southern Library Service which only operated briefly before his death in 1953.
