Antique, Leather Bound Poetry Anthologies curated by Mrs. Waldo Richards for Houghton Mifflin | Star Points 1921 and Love's Highway 1927
RARE! A set of two, antique, leather-bound poetry anthologies curated by Mrs. Waldo Richards. The set includes Star Points published in 1921 and Love's Highway, published in 1927 immediately after Mrs. Richards' passing.
STAR POINTS (1921)
Songs of Joy, Faith, and Promise from the Present-Day Poets
"In this period of reconstruction, following the awful cataclysm (World War I) which has engulfed the entire world, there is a larger need than ever before of an uplifting and sustaining faith. Out of this thought has come the title of the book: "Star Points."
LOVE'S HIGH WAY
Poems of Love and of Love's Living Faith and Aspiration by Old and New Poets
"Love was the keynote of Mrs. Waldo Richards' life - love of family and friends, and love of poetry and all things beautiful. It is therefore peculiarly fitting that she should have named her last anthology "Love's High Way."
