Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Fine condition faux red leather boards with elaborately illustrated gold front cover perimeter and spine decorations, gold front cover lettering, and gold spine lettering over a black block border. Includes Editor's Comment and Acknowledgments. Major chapter headings are as follows: Wisdom; Benjamin Franklin; History; Beauty and Business. "Sometimes it seems almost futile to try to write anything new because it has all been said before - and so well said. Of course, any such defeatism must lead to a dead end of accomplishment in terms of literary effort. Fortunately for the living and those to come, there are many bright new stars on the panel of contemporary writers. They are skillfully telling the story of these eventful days and their words will be read with relish by future generations. In fact, the printed word today is so prolific, and the competition with the book, the magazine and the newspaper is so great, future generations will require anthologies in great number to know what our bright literary stars have said. In this anthology there has bee no effort to be erudite, consistent, unusual or educational. The prime purpose is to amuse by exposing the reader to many things he has read before and may wish to read again. Perhaps that poem he [or she] HAD to learn, to pass freshman English, is here. He may even enjoy rereading it under different auspices. It is not possible to include only those things that appeal to him. If he dislikes poetry in any form, we hope he will please forgive us. Some of us like the "well-turned couplet." On the other hand, there are those who love Shakespeare, but just cannot understand how his hallowed words should appear with some of the more commonplace choices that have arrived in this selection. It takes all kinds you know - and we have tried to select all kinds of literature." - excerpt from Editor's Comment.

Paperback. Condizione: Near Very Good. Bilingual Edition. A very early English/French bilingual wording of the Canadian National Anthem, first performed in French in 1880 as "Chant National" in Quebec City. The French version here, uses Judge Routhier's original wording, while the English version uses Teschemacher's wording, with striking differences between the two. Musical score, folio (14 inches tall), pp. [2], 3-6, [7 - blank], [8], (publisher counts covers in pagination), lower cover with the musical short "Boys of the King" (1909) by Bingham and James. Score is toned and lightly soiled with some creases, edge wear and a sympathetic white tape reinforcement to spine, name in ink at top of front cover. "O Canada !" was officially declared the Canadian National Anthem in 1980, exactly 100 years after it's original composition and first performance in Quebec. There have been many different wordings put forth and used along the way to it's present state, with this being a good example of an early bilingual one.
