The Poetical Works of John Greenleaf Whittier
With Life, Notes, Index etc
Published by Frederick Warne And Co: London (undated, c1900)

" This beautifully bound volume, The Poetical Works of John Greenleaf Whittier, was published by Frederick Warne and Co. of London and includes a biographical sketch, editorial notes, and an index of first lines. It gathers the complete poetic output of the celebrated American Quaker poet, abolitionist, and humanitarian John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892). His verse blends moral conviction with lyrical grace, reflecting his deep opposition to slavery, his rural New England upbringing, and his contemplative spirituality. Poems such as Snow-Bound, The Barefoot Boy, and Maud Muller appear alongside many lesser-known works, presented here with scholarly apparatus for readers of the period.

The volume's blue cloth Art Nouveau binding with gilt and navy decoration reflects Warne's turn-of-the-century house style, while the printer's imprint "Morrison and Gibb Limited, Edinburgh" points to a production date around circa 1898-1905. Copies of this Warne edition were often issued undated, making them characteristic of the publisher's late Victorian to Edwardian reprints of American poets. This edition will appeal to collectors of fine decorative bindings, admirers of 19th-century American poetry, and enthusiasts of illustrated and biographically enriched literary editions."
