Item description from seller

Boston: Walker, Wise, and Company, 1863. First edition. 36 pages. Pamphlet. Approx. 9¼ x 5¾ inches. Publisher’s printed wrappers; stitched.

(p34) After the collapse of the utopian community, Clarke purchases Brook Farm with the intent, but never-realized, goal to begin his own similar venture. In 1883, James Freeman Clarke (1810–1888) authored Anti-slavery days. A sketch of the struggle which ended in the abolition of slavery in the United States. Sabin 13410.…
