Description: n.p. 1947. 1947. - Octavo, self-wraps. A sheet of cream stock, 9 inches high by 13 inches wide, has been folded to form 4 sides. The top edges are very lightly creased with the top corners lightly bumped. 1 full-page illustration in black on a cream ground and a photographic portrait of Marion Morse MacKaye. Near fine.

A note on the fourth side records that the cover illustration is after a charcoal sketch of pine trees drawn by Marion MacKaye at the age of 16 near the home of her grandfather in Walpole, New Hampshire in the summer of 1888. MacKaye's poem is printed on the second side with the portrait of Marion MacKaye at 19 on the facing page. The photograph was taken by her first cousin Frank Morse in the summer of 1891, five years before her first meeting with MacKaye. Very good .
