Description
1873 1ed Rural America Poetry Farm Ballads Legends Festivals Will Carleton Poems
Will Carleton was a 19th-century American author known for his poems and short ballads about rural life. Carletons poems deeply resonated with an American culture that was still rebounding from the Civil War. The poems in his “Farm Ballads” collection are perhaps the most telling of this – including titles that feel uniquely American such as:
“Goin Home Today”
“Uncle Sammy”
“The New Church Organ”
“Apple Blossoms”
“Apples Growing”
Each of these three volumes of the poetical works of Carleton contain in-text sketch illustrations. A fine set of rural American poetry.
