POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.

POETS AND POETRY OF AMERICA.
7 UST published by CARY s. HART, Philadelphia
y The Poets and Poetry of America with an His
torical Introduction, by Rufus w. Grswold, in one
large octave volume, handsomely printed fine
paper and illustrated by portraits Of Bryant Sprague,
Longfeow, Dana, and Halleck, and a beautiful
vignette.
This is the most valuable publication of the sea-
son. No collection of American Poetry has ever
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 our Poets, whose produc
tons are preiaced by neat biographies; and in
Appendix 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 seleca
tons comparatively few but where the author
has left his works to take of themselves, the
tracts have been more voluminous. 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
early copy. Saturday Post.
