Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Home in War Time: Poems
Motherland is proud to send forth her sons, but to the pride of Motherhood are joined the anxiety, the strain of yearning and hoping, the tears for the valorous dead that Motherhood must learn to hear. The bullets carry far. It is mainly to this aspect of war that the follow ing poems, written during the Crimean struggle, are devoted. The work of a man of singularly sensitive nature, they seem to me - despite oh vious shortcomings - a psychological commem tary, full of interest to us just now, on a notable period of national stress.
