Poems by Dinah Maria Mulock (later Mrs. Craik), writing under her maiden name “Miss Mulock”
Boston: Ticknor and Fields, 1866
Printed by Welch, Bigelow, and Company, University Press, Cambridge, MA
16mo, 288 pages | Cloth binding on boards
A charming mid-Victorian American edition of poetry by Dinah Maria Mulock, the English novelist celebrated for John Halifax, Gentleman, published here under her earlier pen name “Miss Mulock.” Issued by Ticknor and Fields of Boston — the same house that published American editions of Tennyson, Longfellow, and Hawthorne — and printed at the University Press in Cambridge by Welch, Bigelow & Co. (Wikimedia Commons; Wikisource).
Mulock’s poetry is known for its warm, sincere, domestic voice, producing lasting favorites like “Philip My King” and “Douglas, Douglas, Tender and True” (Wikisource DNB entry). A handsome, collectible example of 19th-century American gift-book poetry publishing — ideal for collectors of Victorian literature, women writers, or antiquarian Americana.
