As perhaps some of your may perceive my recent listings of books of poetry though enjoyable for me are often clearly over my head. Thank goodness for Wikipedia who kindly supplied me with an ample article about the author of this book I am about to list-to wit (and with my thanks and occasional donation to Wikipedia): Sara Bard Field (September 1, 1882 June 15, 1974) was an American poet, suffragist, free love advocate, Georgist, and Christian socialist. She worked on successful campaigns for women's suffrage in Oregon and Nevada. Working with Alice Paul and the National Woman's Party at the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, Field drove across the country from California to Washington, D.C., to present a petition containing a reported 500,000 signatures demanding a federal suffrage amendment to President Woodrow Wilson.

The second collection of poems by Sara Bard Field (1882-1974), an American poet, suffragist, Georgist, and Christian socialist. She was married to Charles Erskine Scott Wood (1852-1944), an American author, artist, Georgist, lawyer, and civil liberties advocate. Field and Wood lived in an estate called "The Cats" or "The Cats Estate" in Los Gatos, which saw many famous guests including Charlie Chaplin and Eleanor Roosevelt. Wood was also friends with notable figures such as Ansel Adams, Chief Joseph, Margaret Sanger, and John Steinbeck. The following is Wood's inscription on the front free endpaper: "To Alberta Wright Gerould, With all sincere wishes for her happiness, and that of her young husband as they walk together on this 'darkling plain,' from Sara Bard Field. 'The Cats,' Los Gatos, Calif., Dec, 1942." Calling card has the following printed text on white paper: "Colonel and Mrs. Charles Erskine Scott Wood." Wood has written the following letter on this calling card, front and back, in black ink: "Dear Alberta, We send you and your husband our loving congratulations and our hope that your union will be as happy as ours--and as growthful. Your father thought you'd best like some of our books as a wedding gift. Alas! Dear Col. Wood is almost blind and hence his uncertain autograph written with pain, but in sincere regard. Had he had good sight, he would have written more. Bless you, dear Alberta! Sara Bard Field.".
