  Most of Boner's poems are dated from Sankt Emmeran. His translations from the German included Hans Christian Andersen's A Danish Story Book (1846), illustrated by Count Franz Pocci, and The Dream of Little Tuck (1848). The Andersen translations included The Princess and the Pea, and followed the German version of 1839 by Georg Friedrich von Jenssen (as did Caroline Peachey at the same period), multiplying the single pea to three.
  After a London visit in 1844, Boner contributed to the Literary Gazette a series of articles on German poets. He also wrote for the New York Tribune and other papers, and compiled a memoir of Maximilian I of Mexico.
