Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Whittier Correspondence From the Oak Knoll Collections, 1830 1892
Among the earlier letters are a number exchanged between Whittier and his family, the characters im mortalized in snow-bound. Personal and familiar in their tone, they contain allusions which must be analyzed, for under that roof and around that hearth were the in?uences that shaped Whittier, the man of power.
The first letter, that from Hartford in 1830 to his mother, was written when Whittier, a young man of twenty-two, was away from home and among strangers.
