Taylor, Bayard:

$450 · Offered by William Reese Company

XIMENA; OR THE BATTLE OF SIERRA MORENA, AND OTHER POEMS. First edition of the then youthful author's first book, published under the name "James Bayard Taylor." This collection was published with the encouragement of Rufus Griswold, to whom it is dedicated. Taylor continued to chase the muse of poetry, but his chief accomplishments rest with his travel writings and the relatively recent interest in his novel, Joseph and His Friend.
