Description

1885 City Ballads & City Legends 1ed Will Carleton Poems Rural American Poetry

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 â€œCity Ballads” collection are perhaps the most telling of this â€“ each poem is placed in a specific grouping such as â€œWealth”, â€œWant”, â€œHome”, and â€œVirtue”.

Each of these two volumes of the poetical works of Carleton contain in-text sketch illustrations. A fine set of rural American poetry.
