Including The Negro Exodus From the Gulf States by Frederick Douglass [illustrated], The Aspern Papers by Henry James, The Marvelous Land of Oz: Being an Account of the Further Adventures of the Scarecrow and Tim Woodman ... a Sequel to the Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum [illustrated]
and a favorite poem of mine, here's an excerpt:
What can love of land give to me that you have not, what can love of strife break in me that you have not? Though Sparta enter Athens, salt, rising to wreak terror Thebes wrack Sparta, each changes as water, and fall back.

Tim?
-
Heh heh. Ooops.
-
It's their typo. And it appears on a couple of the intro pages from what I see. Grand post nevertheless.
-
Actually, I think the error may be original to the book - it was one of my favorite books as a kid, and it was only just now, searching the text for "Tim" that I thought that he might not have had a name. Regardless, there are a lot of good books there, and that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Some call me...Tim?
-
Greetings, Tim the... Woodman.

...timeo Danaos et fona ferentes...

Oops -- last part of what I thought I was sending disappeared. Very fine links, PF.
