Roman Candle
Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1956. First Edition. Hardcover. Inscribed by Baldrige on the front endpaper. Near fine in a very good jacket, clipped, lightly worn at the edges and corners, foxed on the verso. Red buckram with patterned paper on the boards. Square and firmly bound with a yellow top stain. Baldrige's memoir about her time as the "ringmaster" at the Villa Taverna, the residence of the American Ambassador to Italy.
