Discover a century of motivation with this authentic 1921 first edition volume of "It Can Be Done: Poems of Inspiration." Published by George Sully and Company, this 230-page hardcover is a carefully curated anthology featuring legendary poets such as Walt Whitman, Robert Service, and Edgar Guest. The collection was specifically assembled by Joseph Morris and St. Clair Adams to offer "encouragement and a helping hand" through the power of verse.
The book features its original forest green buckram cloth binding with faded gold gilt titles on the spine. It is an excellent choice for antique book collectors, as a meaningful graduation or "thinking of you" gift, or as a sophisticated accent for an office bookshelf. While the interior pages remain clean and legible, please note that this centenarian volume shows character-rich age, including significant wear to the spine where the text block is beginning to separate from the binding. This provides a wonderful opportunity for a book restorer or for someone who appreciates the raw, fragile beauty of a well-loved antique.
This book is antique, over 100 years old. While it appears to be in good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
