POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA. &
lust published by CARY & HART, Philadelphia.
y The Poets and Poetry of America, with an His
torcal Introduction, by Rufus w. Griswold, in
large octave volume, handsomely printed fine
paper and illustrated by portraits of Bryant, Sprague,
Longfellow, Dana, and lialleck, and beautiful
vignette.
This is the most valuable publication of the
son. No collection of American Poetry has
been made at all comparable to this, whether
gard the completeness of the work, the taste dis
played in the selection The work comprises selec-
tons from Lightweight of Poets, whose produc-
tons prefaced by neat biographies and in
Appendix are contained selections from various Au-
thors who, without pretending to the rank Of Poets
have yet written occasional verses. Where the poet
has published an edition of his works. the selec-
tons are comparatively few; but where the author
has lett his works to take of themselves, the
tracts have been more vouminous. This is praise
worthy feature since it preserves for in collected
form, the works Of Whittier, Sprague, and Others.
The longest poems Of Drake, Sprague, and Whittier
appear in this collection. We dismiss this national
work with the assurance that every American who
loves his countrys muse; will possess himself of an
early copy. "-Sdurddy Post
