About This Item
San Francisco: The Roxburghe Club, 1987. Original wraps. Very good +. 225 Copies completed at Moving Parts Press by Felicia Rice. pp. 26 in blue paper wrappers. **Of note in this copy, laid in: Letter from James D. Hammonds widow or life partner, speaking clearly to the lack of credit she felt Jim (Hammond) received for this seventh commonplace.** She writes to Bob (and Gwen), 9/19/92. I could feel Jims presence and his approval that we were talking. Hw would have appreciated the Anson Brooks obituary. Reading it reminded that I could not find in our library anything on fly fishing. If there is a book in this area that you have edited or written I would appreciate having a copy. Maybe I can interest my 16 yr old grandson in learning about fly fishing, anything that would get him out of the city and into a natural setting would be a good start for survival in this turbulent world. Jim & my grandsons were great pals and much to my surprise most of Jims clothes were a perfect fit. .. if there is a memento you want of Jims, please let me know. I should have asked you earlier. Jim was so fond of you so maybe I thought of us both as having the best memento of all - his life with us. .... I am sending the last Commonplace book published after Sherwoods death. Jim didnt get the credit deserved because the collection was mostly his work - Sherwood was too ill
