Overview

The David Eugene Smith archives at Columbia University's Rare Book and Manuscript Library contain the printed material, manuscripts, portraits and medallions, autographs, and mathematical instruments from his collection. The collection is no longer open to the public as an exhibition. This book provides a special look at the collection by using Smith's own words to guide the reader into what he recollected about the piece while also pinpointing what he valued and thought most important in his collection.
