Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. New Poems by Christina Rossetti: Hitherto Unpublished or Uncollected; edited by William Michael Rossetti; MacMillan and Co., Limited, London, 1900. First published 1895. From the preface by William Michael Rossetti - My sister Christina Georgina Rossetti - beloved by me, admired, and I may say reverenced - died on 29 December 1894, aged 64. There was an immediate, a very wide, and an exceedingly strong outburst of eulogy of her in the public press, both as woman and poetess; an outburst which must have convinced me - had I not known it already - that she is regarded as one of the truly important figures in British poetical literature of the nineteenth century. The book has a gift card attached to the first free endpaper from a Mr. Edwards, Halifax, N.S., dated 1920. This book, 393 pages plus adverts, is in very-good condition. It is a sturdy, well-made book with a nicely illustrated cover and spine.…
