Flowers of Our Lost Romance is a book written by Charles F. Lummis that explores the concept of lost love and how it can be symbolized through flowers. The book is a collection of essays, poems, and stories that all center around the theme of love and its fleeting nature.

Through his writing, he encourages readers to reflect on their own experiences with love and how it has affected them. The book is filled with beautiful illustrations of various flowers, adding to the overall aesthetic of the work. Flowers of Our Lost Romance is a poignant and thought-provoking read that will resonate with anyone who has ever experienced the highs and lows of love.1929. With Illustrations. From the dust jacket: Charles F. Lummis was a native New-Englander and a graduate of Harvard. Some fifty years ago he walked to California, lived for years in an Indian Pueblo, rode the Southwest from side to side and explored it with a keen and understanding heart. He founded The Landmarks Club, the Southwest Museum, and the Sequoya League, and was knighted by the King of Spain for his researches in Spanish-American history. Americanist, author, and explorer, his contribution to the Southwest has been significant. Flowers of Our Lost Romance, completed only a few days before his death, is filled with unforgettable pictures of the West. The chapter headings include: Pioneer Transportation in America, The Virginal Mule-Tamer, The Trail of the Serpent, Indelible Spain, When the Stones Come to Life, and The Last of the Troubadours.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
