Chicago: The Reilly & Lee Co, 1928. Hardcover. 16mo. Green cloth with gilt lettering. 185pp, (5pp). Top edge gilt. Near fine. Miniscule checkmark next to three titles on table of contents. A lovely and tight first edition, with giltstamping bright. On the half-title page, Guest signs large and bold in full in black ink. A superb copy of the homespun versifier at his best -- extraordinary to think that this most American "People's Poet" (1881-1959), long associated with the Detroit Free Press, actually hailed from Birmingham, ENGLAND!

We have 13 copies available starting at £5.17.
