About this Item
Description:
44pp, stitched in original printed wrappers [light wear], Good+ or so. A long poem attacking Horace Greeley, presidential candidate of anti-Grant Republicans and other voters, as a sorehead and spoiler. The former Republican, editor of the New York Tribune, has gotten into bed with the South, "those once conquered, but who re-rebel." Grant, Washington, and Jackson are "True patriots, tried, and firm as adamant." Greeley's mercurial stand on a variety of issues is satirized as "multiform mutations," "so full of whim-whams and contradictions." Sabin 87136. Not in Miles, Eberstadt, Decker.
