Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from My Young Man
Home is the sweetest word in any language. Next to it in tenderness and love is the word mother, while overshadowing them both in splendid majesty is the title of father. These three words are three strokes of the brush by which the artist is able to place on the canvas a picture that arouses the heart of every true young man. John Howard Payne, the wan derer, has become the poet of humanity, because he voiced the universal conception of the human heart in his Home, Sweet Home.
