Sobre este artículo
NY: Harper & Brothers, 1889. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/None. Hardcover, green cloth covers with gilt embossed lettering on spine, gilt lettering and black design on front. No dust jacket. 19 mostly full-page engraved illustrations. Will Carleton, brought up in a log farmhouse in rural Michigan, was America's poet. Writing about ordinary Americans and everyday life, he enjoyed the same kind of success that Robert Burns had in Scotland. "Betsy and I Are Out," a poem about divorce, was picked up by a national newspaper and brought him widespread recognition, that was cemented by "Over The Hill To the Poorhouse," which brought attention to the shabby treatment provided to the country's old and poor. "City Legends" is Carleton's third collection of "city" related poetry and 17th collection overall. Clean, bright copy. Record # 385413
