This is the 1873 edition of Poems by William Cullen Bryant or Bryant's Poetical Works, published by D. Appleton & Co. It has brown embossed covers with a lovely gold floral motif and lettering on the front cover. The spine is also decorated and lettered in gold. There are gilt page ends. The front and back endpapers are a rich brown. There's a portrait of Bryant at the cover page. The book is illustrated with small black and white floral motifs periodically at the section headings. The pages are bordered in red. There are 390 pages.
The book is in fair antique condition for its age and use, mostly because of wear along the front hinge of the spine where the cover has split and is fraying. The covers have general wear elsewhere and the gold lettering is intact and still bright. There is a sticker remnant inside the front cover and small pencil markings. The spine is cracked at the title page. The pages are yellowed. The gilt page ends are still shiny.
The book measures 6.75 inches long by 5 inches wide. It is 1.25 inches thick.
