An excellent example of this important illustrated edition. FURTHER COMMENTS First Edition of this highpoint in Victorian book-illustration uniting the Pre-Raphaelite sympathies of its artists with the romantic medievalism of Tennyson's poetry. The so-called 'Moxon Tennyson' has come to be regarded as a masterpiece of design, and though it went through many printings from a number of publishers, usually maintaining the high quality of the original production, this first issue has long been favoured by the collecting fraternity. SIZE: 225 x 160mm CONDITION: Minor rubbing and marking only but externally bright. The endpapers are foxed due to their poorest quality but internally extremely clean throughout with only the very slightest of foxing, entirely minor.

This volume contains some of the gems of literature which the race has learned to love. Some of the 'old fashion…ed selections' and some of the most charming new short classics, are offered as a basis for study and appreciation. The average pupil will study his reading lesson with zest if he is given some definite work to do. In these studies, the brief introduction to each selection is intended to whet the pupil's appetite.The exercises following each study make his study definite and to the point.

This reader, published after World War I, begins with a poem, "The American Boy." It is a dialogue between a father and son about patriotism. According to the author of this reader, the influence of the story "The Poor Little Match Girl" "founded many an orphan home and organized hundreds of societies for relief of the worthy poor," which indicates an emphasis on philanthropy and social work during the era of the Social Gospel.80% of selections taught traditional values."-- Sharon Vincz Andrews ; signature of a youthful Gerald Grout, later a Kansas Ophthalmologist ; GOOD.
