Here is "The House of Life, A Sonnet-Sequence", by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, famous Pre-Raphaelite Poet. The book was edited by Paull Franklin Baum, who also wrote the lengthy introduction, and comprehensive notes. The book was owned by Professor Albert S. Kerr, with his signature on the font free end-paper, and, as well, there are some marginal notes by Professor Kerr, which is an added bonus from this esteemed scholar of nineteenth English literature. Kerr was an alumnus of Franklin and Marshall College, and a Professor at Rutgers University. We've shown some of the pages upon which he commented.
