“Of all sad words of #tongue or pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been.‘” #QuotsyJul21
This is my treasured seven volume set of Legendary and Narrative Poems by John Greenleaf Whittier, first published in 1848. This Edition of #OldCoolBooks was published in 1892 by Riverside Press and purchased second-hand by my great-grandmother in 1912. It lived in the family home (circa 1834) until being passed to me by my grandfather in 2000.
