Beschreibung

8vo.; in the publisher's red cloth binding with titling in gilt; [3], 4-86 pages, with portrait frontispiece; a decent copy of the First Edition printing, though the red cloth is spotted from water exposure (though not rippled at all, nor is there any evidence of dampstaining inside the book). There is a previous owner name on the endpaper, dated in the year of publication.~~James Ephraim McGirt's origins were in an African-American farm family in Robeson County, North Carolina. This is the first edition of his first volume of poetry. He charmingly apologized in the preface, explaining that his writing was done when he was tired from his day's work and "under very unfavorable circumstances."~. Very Good binding.
