Contains the first printing of Poe's sketch "Morning on the Wissahiccon" pp. 249-256 which was later renamed "The Elk" when republished after Poe's death.</p><p>Thomas Holley Chivers was an American doctor-turned-poet from Georgia. Poe showed an interest in the young poet and encouraged his work. The first interaction between the two was in 1840 though they did not meet until 1845 in New York. "Chivers's own poetry at this time dwelt on shrouds coffins angels and celestial reunion with lost loved ones his The Lost Pleiad 1845 featuring sonnets with such titles as 'Death' 'The Grave' and 'On Hearing of the Death of my Mother.'</p><p>Not surprisingly Poe praised the volume as 'the honest and fervent utterance of an exquisitely sensitive heart' and particularly admired a poem of Chivers whose refrain was 'She came from heaven to tell me she was blest.' He often recited it with tears in his eyes according to Muddy." Silverman Edgar A. Poe: Mournful and Never-Ending Remembrance 1991 p. 259.</p><p>The two became friends and Chivers was willing to give Poe lifetime financial support if he moved to the South. Poe hoped Chivers would lend his wealth as a financial backer for The Stylus and possibly even serve as a co-editor in its early planning stages. Chivers considered Poe's proposal but was not able to accept because of the death of his three-year-old daughter just over a week later. Chivers spent the last few years of his life defending the reputation of Poe who had died in 1849 though he also thought Poe had been heavily influenced by his own poetry.</p><p><strong>A VERY FINE ASSOCIATION COPY.</strong></p> John C.

183816<p>Octavo. Original pebble grain blue muslin printed paper label affixed to spine panel.</p><p>First edition.</p><p><strong>First edition of the only completed novel by Edgar Allan Poe published in August 1838 without author's name.</strong></p><p>Poe had published under his name extracts from <em>The Adventures of Arthur Gordon Pym</em> corresponding to chapters I to IV of the novel in the American magazine <em>Southern Literary Messenger</em> in January and February 1837 but during the volume edition produced a year later the text was presented in agreement with Edgar Allan Poe as the story of an authentic voyage of exploration to the confines of the Antarctic Ocean therefore without the author's name. The Preface dated June 1838 speaks of it as the testimony of an adventurer entrusted to a gentleman from Richmond Edgar A. Poe.</p><p>The work which appeared almost simultaneously in England was panned by Anglo-American critics and later almost disowned by its author. Baudelaire himself who delivered the first French translation in 1858 initially expressed reservations about this exuberant adventure novel where implausibilities and construction defects could put off certain readers. But today <em>The Adventures of Arthur G. Pym</em> the subject of numerous and scholarly studies is recognized as a true masterpiece.</p><p><strong>Very precious copy in its original condition.</strong></p> Harper & Brothers hardcover
