“The Bounding Billow” was the ship’s newspaper of the U.S.S. Olympia, and the book is apparently a published compilation of the newspapers during the stated time period. Hard covers, no publication date. Approximately 7-1/2 inches by 10-1/4 inches. The pages are unnumbered. The front page carries a handwritten inscription from “C.E. Warburton” to his sister, with the dedication having been written in the Philippine Islands in December of 1902. The covers show some separation at the interior spine, with spots and surface soiling, while the paged are age toned. The book is complete and intact.
