Viola Taylor Taylor's first book. Viola Taylor (1883–1959) was a poet and older sister to Una Troubridge (Radclyffe Hall's lover). She was perhaps best known for her 1906 poem "The House of Cæsar", used as a suicide note by Robert E Howard, the American author.
Condition
A good copy of a book which doesn't seem to be readily available. The covers are a bit grubby and rubbed but the contents are in good order and the book is in strong readable condition.
