FROM AN ISLAND OUTPOST

Boston:Little, Brown, and Company. 1914. 1st edition. 313pp. Illustrated. Hardcover with dust jacket.  Boards lightly soiled, with page edges soiled from dust residue, otherwise, aside from light age-toning to endpages, a very good, clean copy. No previous owners marks or signatures. The dust jacket is shelf-worn with wear to edges and seams, but still in one piece and now enclosed in brodart.  "Not, in the strictest sense, an autobiography, but a volume made up of extracts from irregularly kept journals and note-books, Miss Waller's new book sets forth sincerely and impressively her views of life, the literature that has influenced her and her experiences in travel and in her island outpost of Nantucket."
