Description: "Beside the Western Sea: Poems of Marie" is a collection of religious poems written by Harriet M. Skidmore and published in 1877. The book is an antique hardcover with 536+ pages and includes an introduction by the Most Rev. J. S. Alemany, D. D, Archbishop of San Francisco. The poems in "Beside the Western Sea" are centered around themes of faith, devotion, and spiritual contemplation. Skidmore's writing is characterized by its lyrical and emotive quality, drawing on religious imagery and language to evoke a sense of reverence and awe. The inclusion of an introduction by Archbishop Alemany highlights the significance of Skidmore's work within the religious community of San Francisco and the broader United States. Alemany was a prominent figure in the Catholic Church, serving as the Archbishop of San Francisco from 1850 to 1884. His endorsement of Skidmore's work speaks to the importance of religious poetry as a means of expressing faith and promoting spiritual contemplation. The presence of writing and markings on the inside front and back pages, as well as some pencil markings on a few of the pages, suggests that this particular copy of "Beside the Western Sea" has been used and possibly cherished by previous readers. It speaks to the enduring relevance and resonance of Skidmore's poetry, which continues to inspire and move readers more than a century after its initial publication.
