Houghton Mifflin & Co, 1895. Hardcover. Very Good. Hassam, Childe. 1895 reprint, cover designed by Sarah Wyman Whitman, not signed. Hardcover, light green cloth boards with gilt lettering and design to both boards and spine, top edge gilt, foredge untrimmed, 9-1/4" tall, 126 pp., pictures and illuminations by Childe Hassam. Toning to spine, soil marks to front cover at title banner, minor flaking to gilt. A beautiful and important book for many reasons, not the least of which is the garden itself, which can still be visited today. It was almost completely destroyed by fire in 1914, but has been restored and maintained by the University of New Hampshire. The binding by Whitman is one of her best, and the Bibliography of American Literature describes it as "one of the most elaborate pieces of bookmaking of the period." (BAL 19923)
