Satanella was written in 1874 in the Czech language. Satanella is "...lovingly dedicated to the cherished memory of my brother, Dr. Josef Ginsburg whose untimely death on a forgotten battlefield of war-mad Europe left an irreparable void in my life." After this dedication there is a nice photo of the poet, with his signature underneath.
Drawings are by Y. Victor Brozek. Pages 7 through 10, written in Chicago in May 1932 by John J. Reichman, PhD., J.D., are a tribute to the poet who died in 1912.
Pages 11 & 12 are a preface, written in Berwyn, Illinois by the translator, Roderick A. Ginsburg. This is followed by a Prologue, then the heart of the book, an epic love poem. The last page, #69 is the Epilogue.
Another page states that this edition "...consists of 250 Privately Printed and numbered copies of which only 200 are for sale." This book is #81, & carries an inscription prior to the title page signed by the translator.
