Hardcover. First edition. Fine in attractive, very good plus dustwrapper with some light chipping at the crown. The jacket is slightly oversize, thus lending itself easily to wear and damage. A collection of poetry by Wellesley women, including one of the first book appearances by Helen Hoover Santmyer, a 1918 graduate, whose first novel *Ohio Town* didn't appear for another 37 years, and her novel *... And Ladies of the Club* didn't become a bestseller for an additional 22 years, thus 59 years after this appearance.
