Under The Umbrella: Or The Grand Old Man???????s Garland Of Election Lyrics is a book of political poetry written by E. and G. Goldsmid and published in 1885. The ""Grand Old Man"" referred to in the title is likely William Ewart Gladstone, a prominent British politician of the time who served as Prime Minister four times. The book contains a collection of poems that were likely written during an election campaign, as they express political views and support for certain candidates. The use of an umbrella in the title and cover art may be a reference to the idea of providing shelter and protection, possibly suggesting that the book's contents offer a safe haven for those who share the authors' political beliefs. Overall, Under The Umbrella is a unique and interesting historical artifact that offers insight into the political climate of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
