About this Item
Yellow cloth w/black title block and gilt lettering. Farmhouse vignette. Text is clean, tight, white, no marks. Illustrated throughout by Nancy B. Perkins. Remainder marks top and bottom outside edge. Unclipped DJ with $6.00 price shows mild wear head and heel, small scuffs on spine. This author's first book, which she completed at the age of 80. "This is the story not only of a vanished childhood, but of a vanished world. The background of trees and meadows and orchards, of white houses, and red barns, of stump fences and stone walls has disappeared and is as irrecoverable as though it had never been. The laurels are all cut." In these words Miss Sneller begins her account of her family, the Moultons, and of her own childhood in the rural community of Cicero, in Onondaga County, New York, during the last half of the nineteenth century."
