Why not take your experience and write a short series of papers upon it, describing with the greatest accuracy, in the pleasantest language, exactly how you lived, what you were difficulties, who were your companions." Crawford continues with more technical advice and supplies examples of his own experiences writing. It is signed "Best love to all, your affectionate brother, Marion." 8vo., orig. dec. tan cloth, 367, (4)pp. ads. The AL's has folds but is o/w near fine. The book is near fine. Seller Inventory # 236
