198228454New York: Gordian Press 1982. First Edition. Cloth. Fine. First Edition. 3 xviii 485 pages. 4to. 8 x 10 inches. Publisher's blue cloth gilt. A new copy. Cloth. "This volume was developed in response to an urgent need for an instrument to authenticate unsigned texts of Poe that he could have inserted into the journals that he edited during his energetic editorial career: Southern Literary Messenger Burton's Gentleman's Magazine Graham's Magazine The Mirror and the Broadway Journal. In addition it can and I trust will serve many other purposes for students of the words of Edgar Allan Poe: the analysis of his style and vocabulary his characteristic and underlying concepts his broad range of allusion and his language transformations. There was an obvious need for such a key to the integrated body of his fiction to accompany the 1941 Bradford Booth Claude Jones concordance to the very small corpus of his poetry." from the introduction<br/><br/>A rather herculean task before computers were in regular use for this sort of task.

19475343San Francisco: The Colt Press 1947 First book appearance of this work. Limited to 500 copies printed by the Grabhorn Press. Small quarto. 82pp. Seven color wood engravings by Mallette Dean. Handset Oxford type. Cloth-backed decorated boards paper spine label printed in blue and brown. A fine copy. This uncompleted journal originally appeared in 1840 in Burton's Gentleman's Magazine of which Poe was then editor. It appears that the "Journal" might be a made-up diary based on an account by John K. Townsend who in 1839 published a Narrative of a Journey across the Rocky Mountains. Other scholars contend that Poe's work might be based on an earlier trip of exploration into the interior regions of the North American continent not necessarily Townsend's account.
