The first edition was illustrated by Arthur Rackham" The Oxford Companion to Children's Literature.

This the rarest of all the Rackham limited editions was actually never signed by Rackham. The 105 copies were numbered and signed by Margery Williams Bianco this copy however apparently escaped the signing process. The text with the same illustrations by Rackham also appeared in Good Housekeeping beginning in May 1925. No limited English edition was issued.<br /> <br /> Arthur Rackham 1867-1939 is perhaps the most acclaimed and influential illustrators of the Golden Age of Illustration.

18679265Washington: Congressional Globe Office 1867. Unbound. Good binding. Octavo. 8 pp. First edition. Folded sheet never bound untrimmed. Toning and with some shelfwear but generally in fairly nice condition. <br /> <br /> It's fair to say the general tenor of the speeches and limited debate is one of impatience. Williams sums up his frustration with this question: "now we're asked to draw $1000000 more from the pockets of the toiling yeomen of our country to feed the rebels of the South" p. 2. Along these same lines Butler suggests that the southern states and communities are not seeing to their own destitute citizens from their own coffers and that while there is means within the south to do so the Federal Government should not open its treasury. Logan takes a slightly more tempered view but still wants to know the nature of these suffering poor: "What class of people is it Is it the poor downtrodden freedmen Is it the poor white people or is it the families of the leaders of the rebellion that have caused so much weeping and wailing in our land" p. 5. Interesting and considered speeches that that illustrate the continued bad-blood between the North and the South soon after the war. Uncommon in commerce and in institutional holdings according to OCLC. Congressional Globe Office unknown
