This anthology of Celtic verse was produced as a fundraiser for the Outlook Tower in Edinburgh, a cause championed by Professor Patrick Geddes. Patrick Geddes was a man of many talents,of which one was the promotion of Celtic art and poetry and to this end he published 'The Evergreen' Magazine which was a celebration of Celtic arts
The book is complete and in good condition. Lovely distinctive decorated boards which are not signed (but at a guess are by John Duncan). Boards are in good condition but cloth spine is a little frayed in places along spine.Board corners and spine ends are bumped. Hinges are in good condition and binding is sound. Rough cut pages are clean and secure. A scarce collection of poetry
