Sobre este artículo
New York: Dodd, Mead & Co. Very Good. 1942. 29th Printing. Hardcover. B&W Illustrations; This book is in Very Good+ condition and is lacking the dust jacket. The spine ends and corners of the book covers have some very light bumping and rubbing. The text pages are clean and bright. "Blanding became fascinated by Hawaii and moved there in 1915, [4] staying until his enlistment in the U. S. Army in December, 1917. Entering as an infantry private, he underwent officer training and was commissioned a 2nd lieutenant before being discharged in December, 1918, soon after the Armistice. Blanding pursued further art studies in 1920, in Paris and London, traveled in Central America and the Yucatan, and returned to Honolulu in 1921. Finding work as an artist in an advertising agency, he happened into two years of writing poems published daily in the Honolulu Star Bulletin for an advertiser. These featured local people and events, and became well-known and popular – whether because of or in spite of always mentioning the Aji-No-Moto brand of MSG. " (from Wikipedia) .

This was my Father's favorite book and he shared it with me over 50 years ago. Long after he is gone I can still hear him read those words and feel the way Don Blanding brought his Vagabond's House alive. I am getting ready to share it with my Granddaughters and give them the same gift the book and my Dad gave me. The gift of poetry that touches your heart.
