description -
The Cowpath Cross The Eighty by J. Darl Henderson. This decorative booklet was actually a sales tool to help sell his new book "Little Sprays From Yesterday" published by The Christopher Publishing House, Boston Mass.  This may have been a salesman's hand-out to leave with a potential buyer, or maybe was mailed to people to drum up sales. Artwork on the cover and inside show farm life for a young teenage boy in 1914, set to the words of the poems on the pages.
