Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Church Ushers' Manual' by Willis O. Garrett is a foundational guide designed to professionalize and spiritualize the role of the usher within the ecclesiastical setting. Recognizing the usher as the first point of contact for congregants and visitors alike, this work outlines the essential duties and deportment required to foster a welcoming and reverent atmosphere. Garrett emphasizes that the usher's role extends beyond mere logistical management; it is a vital ministry of hospitality that sets the tone for the entire worship service.

First edition. Corrugated covers in plain printed jacket; square 8vo. 52 pp. An attractive program printing poems by some of the attendees including Philip Booth, Donald Justice, Stanley Kunitz, William Meredith, Charles Olson, Theodore Roethke, and James Wright. Faculty poems include those by Ruth Stone and Richard Wilbur. Highlights of the festival were two plays of William Carlos Williams and an assembly with Robert Frost (apparently closing the celebration), but no work included by them here. Signed by Richard Wilbur at his contribution (on the last page): Wilbur's poem "Grasshopper" did not appear until 1961 in a collection, so this would presumably constitute the first book appearance. Nicely printed on dark brown paper with corrugated end papers. Toning to the spine, light soiling, very good. Scarce and rare signed by Wilbur.
