In den WarenkorbThree volmes, octavos, original red morocco gilt, extremities worn, few joints cracking, minor scuffing, pencilled signature on blank end-paper of first volume and initials in ink on that title-page, all edges gilt, very nice set. Clearly following the lead of Johnson, Ellis, and Campbell in their anthologies of English poetry,…this collection begins with Cotton Mather, Michael Wigglesworth, and their colleagues, and continues along roughly chronological lines to include the very early poetry of Longfellow and Whittier. The sole entry under Francis Scott Key is The Star Spangled Banner, Poe's Tamerlane receives a very early mention on page 405 in the list of works by American Poets, which has been called the first bibliography of American poetry. First edition. Uncommon, especially in contemporary red morocco. This set will require extra postage, with the exact amount depending upon the destination.
