Description
Baltimore: The Norman, Remington Co., 1920 First edition of this collection of personal narratives of Confederate women. Publisher's red cloth titled in gilt. . Octavo. With four photo plates (including frontispiece). Some dustsoiling to cloth. Ink ownership signature (1921) of a Mrs. E.L. Merry to front pastedown. Foxing to a few leaves. One plate loose, laid in at original position. A very good, tight copy. The present work begins with a foreword defending the people of the Confederacy, particularly women. The author presents the narratives collected here to humanize the women of the South and avoid the "well-intended but somewhat doubt-provoking abundance of perfervid eloquence heaped upon them by a certain type of orator much given to flowery speech," (p. 3). Matthew Page Andrews (1879 – 1947) was an editor, author, and prominent Southern historian. He was the nephew of Thomas Nelson Page (1853 – 1922), the Confederacy-born author and lawyer. Andrews also wrote The Tercentenary History of Maryland, The Old Dominion, A History of the United States, and The American's Creed and Its Meaning. He was also the editorial advisor to the Yale University Press film series Chronicles of America. Andrews was staunch defender of aristocratic Southern white opinion: he was opposed, for example, to Republicans, prohibitionists, and abolitionists. He was also a supporter of the 1931 "Faithful Slave Memorial" at Harper's Ferry and played a principal role in the controversy surrounding the memorial.

Description
Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1918. Octavo, tan boards (hardcover), 58 pp. Fine in a Very Good dust jacket with edgewear. From dust jacket: Class pride, utter unbelief in the God of Christianity, and race prejudice -- these were the three big things that grew like rank weed sin the fair garden of Philip Landicutt’s virtues, the three things that were ever the subjects of disagreement between himself and his mother, otherwise perfectly attuned. Of the virtues was passionate pity for the oppressed, the eager chivalry that cannot contemplate a wrong unmoved, and the quick self sacrifice of youth. These led the young American to throw himself into the horrid welter of European warfare, in defense of Belgium. They led him into the trenches, where he lost his class prejudice; left him desperately wounded upon the battlefield, where he found his God, and into a hosptial ward where he leanred that humanity is greater than races. A few months only sufficed for these experiences, but the result occupied the young man for the rest of his life. Rarely indeed is so much of life’’s meaning, so much of power, so much of soul-moving emotion packed into even a long novel as Mrs. Andrews has compressed into this single short story. It is pure inspiration, sincere and straightforward, and without the alloy of a single false note. It is one of those rare messages that goes straight from the heart of the creator to the heart of the reader. “The Three Things” will undoubtedly be pronounced the summit of Mrs. Andrew’s artistic achievements.
