1918WRCLIT82690Honolulu H.T.: Gurrey's Limited 1918. 631pp. 12mo. Drab wrappers printed label. A very good copy. First edition of the author's first book. After earning a medical degree in Boston and practicing in his native Maine for nine years Woodbury moved with his new bride to Honolulu in 1916 where he maintained a homeopathic practice for three years and was active in amateur literary and dramatic productions. In March 1919 he left the islands for San Francisco and after two years practice there he returned to New England. His war sonnets are interleaved with and often are responses to quotations from political military and literary writers Seeger Hagedorn Kipling Cicero Wells Bridges et al that are printed en face with them. Woodbury was not a combatant during the war but served as an examiner at the Honolulu Naval Station. OCLC locates some 20 copies but at this point one would be hard pressed to locate an actual printed original rather than a blurry p.o.d. [Gurrey's Limited] unknown books
