Publisher's Synopsis
Libretto to Miles Standish is a book written by Franz Kielblock in 1860. The book is a libretto, which means it is the text of a dramatic musical work, such as an opera or a ballet. The libretto is based on the poem ""The Courtship of Miles Standish"" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The story is set in the early days of the Plymouth Colony in Massachusetts and follows the love triangle between Miles Standish, John Alden, and Priscilla Mullins. The libretto includes lyrics for the musical numbers and dialogue between the characters. It provides a glimpse into the popular entertainment of the mid-19th century and the adaptation of literary works for the stage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
