Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Near FNE, 2nd edition, maroon hard cover with bright gilt embossed palm tree decoration and font on cover and gilt font on spine, 170 pps. Portrait of Gilbert with tissue protected frontispiece. Unmarked, clean and tight. Beautiful cover and contents very well preserved fo…r a copy this old. Cover corners gently bumped. Gilbert was one of the few poets to write extensively about Panama. His poetry does paint a picture of what life was like (for him) in Panama at this time - era of construction of Canal. "Gilbert had begun to write poetry about Panama while employed as shipping agent, and he continued to so so for the rest of his life. From "Away down south in the Torrid Zone,' the first line of his first poem, readers were captivated by Gilbert's vision of the tropical pre-canal Panama. His poems in Panama Patchwork, the book in which "Beyond the Chagres" appeared, were called 'documents of life on the Isthmus' by a New York Times reviewer in 1906. His fans called him the 'poet laurete of the . " GIFT quality, a book which through it's beautiful binding, also pays homage to an era in which binding was a most appreciated art.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of poems about life on the Isthmus of Panama, a narrow strip of land connecting North and South America. The author, who spent many years living and working on the Isthmus, captures the unique culture and challenges of this region. The poems explore themes of…isolation, adventure, and the search for meaning in a harsh and unforgiving environment. They offer a glimpse into a world that is both beautiful and dangerous, where the human spirit is tested to its limits. Through vivid imagery and lyrical language, the author paints a portrait of a place where dreams and nightmares collide, and where the line between civilization and savagery is often blurred. This book is a valuable contribution to the literature of the Isthmus of Panama, and it offers a unique perspective on the human experience in this fascinating and enigmatic region. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
