First Edition. First edition, 8vo, pp. 63, [1]; lovely engraved frontispiece; contemporary gilt-stamped orange pebbled-grain cloth, elaborate gilt panels with Hamilton Fish's name in gilt on the upper cover (likely an American binding); leaf F4 misbound but present; near fine. A subscribers' list of 52 names, including William Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais, took a total of only 76 copies, so the edition size is likely small. Bound in at the back is a 30-page insert, the poem "The President's Case," most likely by Andrew Dickson White, beginning with a dedication leaf followed by 14 leaves paginating 204-230, [1]. In the prefatory note on p. 204 the author mentions having previously written "George Barnum McClellan," likely "Mai-Jour (translated May-Day) General George Barnum McClellan, militant-homeopath to the army of the Confederates." which exists in a single copy at Cornell, according to OCLC. The poem ends with a sentiment within a mourning border reading: "The New York Tribune. / Under this stone / lies buried / The Slave Democracy. / R. I. P. / Finis / Horace Greeley, preacher and sexton." While the pagination suggests this may have been removed from a larger volume, the presence of a preliminary dedication and author's notes, and the similarly unconventional pagination in "Mai-Jour," suggests that this may be all that was printed. We have found no instances of the poem in any other collection or imprint. White was a US Diplomat, author, and the co-founder of Cornell University. He was a staunch supporter of Grant, and dedicates the poems to him, "the most resolute and triumphant of our soldiers, and the most successful of our diplomats." The poem celebrates Grant and attacks his critics, particularly the New York Tribune and its editors. A couple of pencil corrections, very good. Hamilton Fish, whose copy this was, was also a strong supporter of Grant, and ended up serving as his Secretary of State through both administrations.…
