Donald Benson Blanding (1894-1957) was an American journalist, speaker, author, and poet who sentimentalized warm climates and was sometimes described as "poet laureate of Hawaii." His less sentimental 1926 illustrated poem, The Virgin of Waikiki, is funny little tale of a old maid who paints herself up and goes out on the beach to find a man.

This early work of poetry is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. This is a lovely work and is thoroughly recommended for any fans poetry. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

An extraordinarily popular collection of poems written in and about Hawaii. First published in 1928, the book went through two printings a year for many years, and Blanding became the most popular American poet of the period. "Vagabond's House" is an ideal expression of that imaginary retreat which each man builds and furnishes according to his heart's desires. Dreamy illustrations give the book a look to match.
