Toasts & tipple : a book of conviviality por Wallace Rice
Terrific frontis & medieval courtly illustrations printed in Green on Cream throughout. Poetry about convivial gatherings around drinking & celebrating in the period preceding Prohibition. Decorative pastedown on front cover
The cover alone would have made me want this book. It's kidskin, and the title is in gold leaf (I took it to my favorite jeweler to verify that today). It was given as a Commencement gift, from relatives, or perhaps members of a congregation, or even teachers. Oliver Cromwell (Sr) was a remarkable poet, and essayist. I now must seek out this book to read it. It has poem or essay snippet for each day of the year
January Third:
The question is not, what is reasonable for a man to think about, but what he actually does think about. (The Professor at the Breakfast Table.)
(I have great joy; I've found two separate places where this is digitized, and online)
