New York: Oxford University Press, 1925. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. First edition. Fine in attractive, very good plus dustwrapper with some light chipping at the crown. The jacket is slightly oversize, thus lending itself easily to wear and damage. A collection of poetry by Wellesley women, including one of the first book appearances by Helen Hoover Santmyer, a 1918 graduate, whose first novel *Ohio Town* didn't appear for another 37 years, and her novel *... And Ladies of the Club* didn't become a bestseller for an additional 22 years, thus 59 years after this appearance. (Inventory #: 44613)
