There is no stable and no feed, and I am obliged every evening to bring up his oats in saddle-bags from Middlesborough, a distance of five miles. The start down the mountain is early. The descent among the sun-flecked shadows of that forest road will be pleasant. On the way to Middlesborough I turn to the left over Cumberland Gap to give my horse a drink in the immense spring of sweetest and purest freestone water, which issues from a cave in the mountain side."

Richard Watson Gilder (February 8, 1844 - November 19, 1909) was an American poet and editor. Gilder was born on February 8, 1844. During the American Civil War, he enlisted in the state's Emergency Volunteer Militia in Landis' Philadelphia Battery at the time of the Lee's 1863 invasion of Pennsylvania. After the Battle of Gettysburg, Gilder was mustered out. He became a reporter on the Newark (New Jersey) Advertiser. In 1870, he became editor of Hours at Home, a monthly magazine published by Scribner's. It merged with Scribner's Monthly. Gilder became editor. In November 1881, the monthly was renamed as The Century Magazine, and Gilder remained its editor until his death. Gilder took an active interest in all public affairs, especially those which tend towards reform and good government. He was one of the founders of the Society of American Architects, of the Authors' Club, and of the International Copyright League. He was a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He was a close friend of George MacDonald, Scottish poet, author, and preacher. Gilder received the degree of LL.D. from Dickinson College in 1883. Gilder was a member of the Simplified Spelling Board. He was a leader in the organization of the Citizens' Union, a founder and the first president of the Kindergarten Association, and of the New York Association for the Blind. Gilder was chairman of the first Tenement House Commission in New York City. The index includes many references to Theodore Roosevelt, Grover Cleveland, Samuel Clemens and other notables. Rosamond Gilder (born Janet Rosamond de Kay Gilder, 1891 - September, 1986) was an American theater critic. Gilder was a native of Marion, Massachusetts, daughter of writer Richard Watson Gilder. She was raised in New York City in artistic surroundings, and met such figures as Mark Twain, Jacob Riis, and Eleonora Duse. She began contributing articles to Theatre Arts Monthly during the 1920s, and joined its staff in 1936. Ten years later she succeeded Edith Isaacs in its editorship. In 1947 she was one of the founders of the International Theater Institute, in which role she promoted the idea of sending American theater companies to tour abroad. She was elected president of its American arm in 1963, remaining in the post until 1969. She spearheaded the production of numerous theatrical publications, and published articles and books on dramatic subjects as well. Gilder received a Tony Award in 1948 and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1950. In 1964 she was enrolled in the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres. A selection of her papers are held at the New York Public Library. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.

Hardcover. viii, 960 pages. Illustrations (some full page). Maps. Index. Boards weak and have been previously repaired with tape. Minor edge tear/chip to fep. Some damp staining at page edges noted--all pages separate and text clear. Number stamped on title page. Format is mostly two column. Some illustrations cross columns. The Century Magazine was an illustrated monthly magazine first published in the U. S. in 1881 by The Century Company of New York City, which had been bought in that year by Roswell Smith and renamed after the Century Association. It was the successor of Scribner's Monthly Magazine. The initial editor was Richard Watson Gilder, the managing editor of Scribner's, who would go on to helm The Century for 28 years. Gilder largely continued the mixture of literature, history, current events, and high-quality illustrations that Holland had used at Scribner's. The magazine was very successful during the 19th century, most notably for a series of articles about the American Civil War which ran for three years during the 1880s. It included reminiscences of 230 participants from all ranks of the service on both sides of the conflict. According to an author writing in the New York Times, the publication of The Century "made New-York, instead of London, the center of the illustrated periodicals published in the English language." The magazine was also a notable publisher of fiction, presenting excerpts of Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in 1884 and 1885 and Henry James' The Bostonians. Original bound volumes such as this one are extremely scarce, especially when not institutional ex-library. The contents in the six issues in this volume include: Confederate Ram Albermarle, American Machine Cannon, Dynamite Guns, Army Hospitals, Telephone, Fraternities, Russian Exile System, Sally Cash, Irtish, George Kennan, Emma Lazarus, Pope Leo XIII, Abraham Lincoln, Locomotive Chase, Mexican Campaign, Mountaineers, Military System, Sheriff's Work, Ranchman, Siberia, and Sinai. Among the authors are: Walt Witman, Theodore Roosevelt, William Cushing, Edward Eggleston, Horace Porter, George Kennan, Henry James, John Nicolay, John Hay, William Pittenger, Matthew Arnold, James Whitcomb Riley, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, Emma Lazarus, John Bigelow, John C. Fremont, and E. W. Kemble. Fair [Merits repair or rebinding] Presumed First Edition, First printing thus.
