Favourites of a nursery of seventy years ago : and some others of later date
A 1916 Boston and New York anthology by Edith Emerson Forbes, gathering nursery favourites from about seventy years earlier and some later pieces, for children. Its four small wood-engraved scenes show a girl pointing at a crying boy beside a tree, a family group with an elderly man in a armchair, a girl and boy walking with a dog that stands on its hind legs wearing a top hat, and a woman in a riding habit gesturing at a cowering figure in a parlour.
