Seller's Description:
Illustrated By W. M. Berger. Very Good. No Jacket. Book. 6 3/4" X 4 1/2" 349 pages, no stamps or writing, pages darkening. Red cover, New Pocket Classics, gilt lettering on spine.
Included in this collection of 'Modern' letters (1880's-1920's) is Theodore Roosevelt's hilarious letter detailing the way European leaders elbowed each other aside in their determination to take precedence at the funeral King Edward VII. That alone is enough to justify this book, but there are so many more gems that I keep buying copies to give to my friends.
