Description
New York: McLoughlin Bro's, 1882. [JUVENILE] [POETRY] [RHYMING VERSE] [WOMAN AUTHOR]. 4to (10 ½" x 6 7/8"); [16]pp; color pictorial wrapper, a vignette of children signing with a chorusmaster within a frame of leaves; rear wrapper features a publisher's ad for "New Picture Books for Little Children"; publisher's string binding; gift inscription on first page; 4 chromolithographed plates; upper edges have been creased, light soiling, ¾" split through all spine folds at bottom; very good. Lovely decorations to this classic Christmas poem by Charlotte Elizabeth Bowen (1817-1890), the 19th century English children's author and minister's wife. This Victorian, religiously moralistic story centers on the song of a robin on a cold and snowy Christmas, and the rector of a church. A second poem titled "Lucy Gray; or, Solitude" is included in the book.
