The Gubbio studiolo and its conservation Book

My dad had a 1929 copy of this book. It's pretty sweet. It's got the best of the best inside. Whenever I would consider giving presents to people, this book would usually cross my mind. I've read most of it, but now I'm starting at the beginning and reading it through.

EDIT: And now I've finished it.

I have a lot of favorites. I love the multi-layered symbolism in "In Flanders Fields." The poppies being red, and an opiate and the fact that they introduce the poem and give it a sense of closure.

Kipling's "If" is a masterpiece, as are his other works in here. It's interesting to look at the timing of his personal life for when he wrote "The Gods of the Copybook Headings."

"Paul Revere's Ride" "Oh Captain My Captain"

"Horatius" was a pleasant suprise. I could never get into that poem before. I really liked it this time around.
