Sobre este artículo
Chicago, Illinois: The Reilly & Lee Co, 1919. First Edition. Full-Leather. Good/No Jacket. 6x4x0. First edition. Rear cover soiled, bookplate on front endpaper. 1919 Full-Leather. 192 pp. Edgar A. Guest (born Aug. 20, 1881, Birmingham, Warwickshire, Eng.—died Aug. 5, 1959, Detroit) was a British-born U.S. writer whose sentimental verses were widely read. Guest’s family moved to the United States in 1891. Four years later he went to work for the Detroit Free Press as a police reporter and then as a writer of daily rhymes, which became so popular that they were eventually syndicated to newspapers throughout the country and made his name a household word. His first book, A Heap o’ Livin’ (1916), named for his famous lines “It takes a heap o’ livin’ in a house t’ make it home,†became a best-seller and was followed by similar collections of his optimistic rhymes on such subjects as home, mother, and the virtue of hard work. Guest also appeared on radio and television.
