Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. 1867? 12mo - over 6 3/4" - 7 3/4" Tall. iv, 111p. A very good copy, with a few minor blemishes on the front cover and a little rubbing at the forecorners of the covers. It is a nice tight copy bound in its original green cloth and the gold lettering and decoration on the front cover and the spine are nice and bright. There are twenty-nine Mother Goose rhymes, each rather elaborately expanded or commented upon in verse. In addition there is an introductory verse and a concluding verse. There is only one illustration, the frontispiece. This is an early edition, but not the first which was published in 1859. The editions which were much later dropped A Christmas Reading from the title page and speaking of which it had very little to do with the book, except that perhaps it was meant to sell the book at Christmas-time. Size: 12mo - over 6 3/4" - 7 3/4" Tall. Book.

American author of girls tales and poems whose first book was published in 1859 ("Mother Goose for Grown Folks") and last book in 1900 ("The Integreity of Christian Science"). AQS, 1p, 7" X 9", n.p., n.y. Very good. Faint vertical show-through along leftmost 1" from mounting traces on verso, with ¼" paper loss near upper left corner (not affecting text). On lined paper (running vertically, strangely), Whitney boldly pens her three-stanza poem "A Violet," first published in her 1872 poetry collection "Pansies," and signs in full at the conclusion. Opens with "God does not send us strange flowers every year. / When the spring winds blow o'er the pleasant places, / The same dear things lift up the same fair faces. / The violet is here." An unusually lengthy example -- Whitney usually penned short sentiments only or single verse lines for admirers, not full poems.
