hi
has anybody came accross this before ,
I have inherited a book of poems ,hand written calligraphy of a few of his poems ,but there is a mistake in one of the poems ie Maidenhood .
The 10th verse starts (the swell ) in the book i have it starts (The sound of ).
I took it to the antiques roadshow and was told it was written approx 1840-1850 it has NO AUTHER OR PUBLISHER but on the front of the book are the initials F.G.B. in gold lettering ,any help or info out there ,also each page has very nice hand drawn and painted various botanical plants .
