About 80 of the poems in History are new," writes Mr. Lowell, "the rest are taken from my last published poem, Notebook begun six years ago. All the poems have been changed, some heavily. I have plotted. My old title, Notebook, was more accurate than I wished, i.e. my composition was jumbled. I hope this jumble or jungle is cleared--that I have cut the waste marble from the figure" (Lowell, from the inside flap blurb - for the other part of the blurb, see image 2 - these pieces are the only part of the cover present). Good condition; no highlighting or other notes. See image 3 for the cover.
