- Description
- The Rare Books and Manuscripts collection of the Boston Public Library holds two unique, hand-made volumes of documents compiled by Anne Bradstreet’s first nineteenth-century publisher, Abram E. Cutter. These volumes are personal scrapbooks in which Cutter recorded his close involvement with the publication of The Works of Anne Bradstreet in Prose and Verse, edited by John Harvard Ellis and published by Thomas Wilson and Sons in 1867. They provide a valuable new resource for the study of Anne Bradstreet’s publication history as well as a rare insight into the production, packaging, and contemporary promotion of this deluxe scholarly edition.
