A wonderful example of this book in an edition thought to run to two hundred & seventy-five copies. From the library of James Younger a member of the Younger brewing family. Nicholson had been working with Heinemann since the mid-1890s. As well as designing their windmill device Nicholson created a number of books for Heinemann including London Types 1898 and The Square Book of Animals 1899.

The only way I tried it my verses became so deeply political not to say protectionist that I stopped.' London, William Heinemann, 1898. hardcover
