Willis, N. P. — Fugitive Poetry

Boston, Peirce and Williams, 1829. Hardcover. Dark blue binding, gilt letters on spine, 92 pp. A collection of poems by American poet and editor Nathaniel Parker Willis (1806-1867). No explanation is included to define the fugitive-ness of the poems. This distinction must be left to the reader's analysis. F (Moderate wear along all edges; front hinge is separating; moderate scuffs on binding; previous owner's name written inside front cover; average instances of foxing and soiling on pages, and some pages have tears; text is easy to read; a possible candidate for rebinding and refreshing.) .
