1894 - Brave Little Holland GRIFFIS HB

Brave Little Holland and What She Taught Us, by William Elliot Griffis, Rev. Ed. 1894 - 254 pages. Houghton Mifflin published this for the Bay View Reading Club (founded 1893) which promoted reading as a home study activity. HB, no jacket. NOT an EX LIB. VG. Red cloth boards, black graphic, black & gold foil lettering. Minor soiling to covers, moderate soiling to page edges, owners' names & date (July 1911) written on inside front flyleaf. Some foxing & tanning to some pages. Occasional faint pencil underlining or annotation in margin, all erasable. Otherwise no markings, tears, or flaws. Tightly bound. A very attractive compact, solid little volume. VERY scarce in this format, most of what you find online are facsimile reprints from an original (this age) edition. Although this is a "Revised edition" it is still over 100 years old and in exceptional condition. The "reprints" come with a disclaimer concerning the accuracy of the text as digitized. No such disclaimer needed here!
