During the Civil War he contributed to the "Spectator," under the pseudonym, "A Yankee," a series of articles which greatly influenced English public opinion in favour of the North, while his satire, "The New Gospel of Peace," was an effective attack upon "copper-headism" and the advocates of "peace at any price." His son was the architect Stanford White. Size: Small 8vo. Illus. by Illustrated. First Edition.. Wraps. Very Good.
