Good. Number 41 of a limited edition of 250 numbered copies printed by D. B. Updike for the Carteret Book Club at the Merrymount Press in May 1923. In his introductory note, John Cotton Dana writes that the text is an address given by Thomas L. Raymond to the Newark Schoolmen's Club on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of Stephen Crane's birth and the unveiling of a tablet inscribed to his memory. The address was issued as an appreciation of the man and his work rather than a formal biographical essay.
