Hardcover. Book Condition: Very Good. Jacket Condition: No Jacket (as issued). W. B. Clarke Boston / Cazenove London, 1903. First Edition. 64 pages. 1st Printing. Scarce. Nice Tight Clean copy ! Dark green cloth boards, gold and white decor, top edges gold gilt. Printed on one side of leaf only. Size: 8.25 x 6.61 x 0.65. W. Starling Burgess designed three victorious America's Cup defenders, first American to design twelve-meter class yachts, known for his airplane manufacturing company, which flew the first airplane in New England, created the Dymaxion automobile with Buckminster Fuller, married Rosamond Tudor after her scandalous divorce, father of renown illustrator (Na)Tasha (Starling) Tudor. In 1994, Michael Parker, in the journal Printing History, presented compelling evidence that Burgess deserves designing credit for the world's most popular font, Times New Roman. His one published volume of poetry, The Eternal Laughter and Other Poems, while not popular with the public, received critical acclaim among fellow poets of his day. RBR13
