When Henry Wadsworth Longfellow died on March 24, 1882, at the age of seventy-five, he was the most celebrated poet in the English-speaking world, Not only was he America's first professional poet, but, after his death, he was the first American to have his bust placed in the Poets' Corner at Westminster Abbey in London, England. Longfellow was an unsurpassed master in his use of musical language. Few poets could match his sonorous and rhythmically sensual use of words. His poetry is rarely abstract, and the vivid, descriptive imagery and the narrative form of verse he favored make it pleasing to read and follow. His subject matter touched on American life and its verities, be it legendary heroism as in "Paul Revere's Ride" or in the honest, upright, and hardworking man of "The Village Blacksmith." This collection brings together Longfellow's best and most famous poems, providing a complete overview of his versatile and multifaceted genius. All the classic Longfellow selections, including "A Psalm of Life," "The Children's Hour," and "The Day is Done," are here, as well as lesser-known but equally worthy poems, like "The Cross of Snow," a sonnet written in memory of his second wife, who died tragically in a fire. Also included, in their entirety, are two long narrative masterpieces,EvangelineandThe Courtship of Miles Standish. One of the most popular poets who ever lived, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was a marvelous storyteller. In addition, his verse expressed his deep sincerity and his uncanny ability to identify with the hearts and passions of those who read and reread his poems. This book features a deluxe cover, ribbon marker, top stain, and decorative endpapers with a nameplate.… (lisätietoja)

Longfellow's poetry was written in an era in which many poets expressed their faith in their poetry regardless of whether the theme of the poem dealt with religion. This collection contains several of his shorter selections such as "The Village Blacksmith" and "Paul Revere's Ride" as well as the full text of his longer historical poems "Evangeline" and "The Courtship of Miles Standish" and selections from "Song of Hiawatha." Many of the lines are longer than those with which readers of modern poetry are accustomed. The poetry's rhythm lends itself to a slower reading than some. Still these are classic poems. I enjoyed reading some for the first time and re-reading others. ( )
