Ownership Signature Of St. Paul Mn Literary Editor Annie W. Sanborn. Near Fine Lightly Used Bright And Clean Pages Square And Fresh Just Some Tiny Light Stains Rear Cover. Willa Cather Reviewed The Book In 1897 Writing As "Helen Delay": "Among The More Recent Books There Is A Little Volume Published By Lippincott Called "In Sight Of The Goddess." It Is A Story Of Political Life In Washington And Is Of Considerable Interest Just Now When A New Presidential Regime Has Just Begun And Washington Is The Center Of Interest. Washington Is Very Unlike Other Cities And Has An Atmosphere Of It's Own And Conditions Peculiar To Itself. If You Didn't Go Down To The Inauguration You Had Better Read "In Sight Of The Goddess" And See The City Through Miss Harriet Riddle Davis' Glasses. Very Fair And Unprejudiced Glasses They Are Too. The Story Is That Of A Young Washingtonian Who Acts As Secretary To One Of The Cabinet Officers And Loves That Gentleman's Daughter. The Story Is Bright And Clever In Itself But The Side Touches The Description Of Washington Life And Manners Are The Most Interesting Features Of The Book. Society Has Come To Play A Very Important Part In Politics Rather Too Important Perhaps But It Is Interesting To See "How The Wheels Go Round" In The Inner Circles Of Official Life And To Study Public Men As They Are In Private. It Is Said That All The Characters Of Miss Davis' Book Were Drawn From Well-Known Originals And That Its Appearance Caused No Little Stir In Washington." Harriet Riddle Dabvis Was Daughter Of A Prominent Ohio Congressman Who Had Been An Associate Of Abraham Lincoln. <br/> <br/> J. B. Lippincott hardcover
