Centennial Records of the Women of Wisconsin

Madison, Atwood and Culver, 1876. Hardcover. 8vo. Terra cotta cloth over bevelled boards with gilt lettering and decoration. viii, 223pp. Frontispiece, numerous full-page plates. Very good overall. Binding is edgeworn and rubbed, with miniscule chips at spine head/tail and dinged corners, else tight and internally quite nice; abrasion to rear endpaper. Scarce first edition of "Reports concerning the philanthropies of Wisconsin Women," coinciding with the U.S. centennial, covering a broad range of charities and institutions -- among them the pioneering St. Clara Female Academy of Sinsinawa, from whose archives this very copy hails, with their miniscule convent name/address inkstamp on title page and one page of their institutional account. Among the many illustrations perhaps the most interesting are a 3-page facsimile of the poem "The Four Lakes of Madison" submitted by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. .
