Paradise Viola
The Pacer
New York: E.P. Dutton & Company. Very Good. c.1927. First Edition. Hardcover. no dust jacket solid clean copy light bumping at several corners very slight fraying to cloth at lower extremities small bookseller's rubber stamp Bertrand Smith Long Beach California on front pastedown. First novel by an author who had an intermittent output over the course of the quarter-century or so. I find four novels for her in OCLC the last in 1952; she also seems to have been involved in social work in some fashion and her name appears on several additional books in that field; she also contributed several magazine pieces on the topic of immigration to Harper's Magazine in the early 1920s. This one's a romantic-triangle potboiler about a girl who has to go to work as a "pacer" in a pickle factory at age 16 after her aunt the dressmaker becomes ill and can no longer work; she ends up in an unhappy marriage to the pickle factory owner then subsequently falls in love with a poet. From the original New York Times review: "In short the book belongs to the vast majority of the mediocre the novels 'too bad for a blessing too good for a curse.'" Ouch. Maybe that's why she didn't give up her day job. . E.P. Dutton & Company hardcover books

MILTON John
Paradise Regained, Samson Agonistes, Comus, and Arcades. The Author John Milton [with] Poems on Several Occasions. Lycidas. L'Allegro. Il Penseroso. Sonnets. Odes. Miscellanies. Translations. Poemata. DELIGHTFUL SET IN PUBLISHER'S BOARDS
2 vols., 12mo., with fine engraved and printed titles, and a total of 8 engraved plates after Westall (most original tissue guards present), some minimal offsetting from plates; ORIGINAL BOARDS, very neatly rebacked to style, ORIGINAL PRINTED PAPER LABELS PRESERVED (labels chipped and worn but virtually all lettering entirely legible), uncut, boards mildly age-stained with a few old tape marks, else a most attractive and remarkably clean, crisp set in tastefully restored publisher's binding. The engraved titles, all after Westall and dated 1816, are by Engleheart (Vol. I: Paradise Regained) and Rhodes (Vol. II: Minor Poems). The fine engraved and captioned plates are also after Westall and dated 1816. In the first volume, the plates stand before Paradise Lost (Finden), Samson Agonistes (Romney) and Comus (Heath); in the second, the plates stand before Lycidas (Engleheart), L'Allegro (Heath), Il Penseroso (Mitan), Sonnets (Heath) and Odes (Finden).In the first volume Paradise Regained is paginated by line number only; the other works (including Arcades) are all separately paginated. In the second volume the pagination is continuous (including the Index).Something of a bibliographical puzzle here. The two volumes were clearly published as a set (vide the publisher's labels) but we can find no clear record of them as such. Volume I appears to be unrecorded by Stevens, falling as it does between Sharpe's first edition of 1809 and his quite distinct two-volume edition of 1827. Volume II would appear to be a later issue of Stevens 264 (who records the first edition thus as 1817 despite the dating on the engraved title). He makes the point that Vol. II was 'bound with his Paradise Regained, 1817' but lists no printings in 1819. These complexities notwithstanding, a scarce and delightful pair in well-nigh original period binding.
