About the author
Little biographical information about Perry Honce McGee is easy to confirm from widely available sources. What can be confirmed is that he was the author of My Valued Ruby: Poems, a collection published in 1920 and preserved by major public-domain archives.
The surviving record suggests a writer whose poems moved across love, everyday feeling, and broader social concerns. Because so little background material is readily documented, his work itself remains the clearest introduction: a glimpse of an early 20th-century voice that deserves more attention than it usually gets.
