Bookseller Notes

His first book, inscribed by the author on the flyleaf to a fellow poet: 'James Elroy Flecker, from Douglas Goldring, Nov. 5th 1910. Redintegratio!' Flecker's 'Thirty-Six Poems' appeared with the same, short-lived publisher an imprint of Goldring's magazine, 'The Tramp' in this year. Though Goldring had earlier been critical of what he regarded as the derivative aesthetic posturing of Flecker's 'Bridge of Fire' (1907), the two established a friendship and correspondence; Goldring's 1922 'James Elroy Flecker: An Appreciation...' is a full account of their association and admiration.
