Front cover illustration: Hamilton College Library recently acquired Honey: Soul of Flowers to Sweeten the Soul of Man, a four-page price list from Mount Lebanon. The cover illustration is unusual and striking. Mary Richmond notes (Shaker Literature, no. 340) that W H. Cathcart attributes the cover design to "Brother Peter Neagoe, a Roumanian living at the North Family, Mount Lebanon, N.Y in 1906."

This lavishly illustrated catalog highlights the Hamilton College Library’s holdings of Ezra Pound material. Pound, a Hamilton alumnus (class of 1905), was one of the most important and influential poets of the twentieth century. The first third of the book focuses on materials unique to the Hamilton collection, while the rest of the book identifies works by and about Pound held by the Hamilton College library. This catalog reveals the importance of this collection for Pound scholars and places it among the best in the country.
