Publisher's Synopsis
Newport Ballads is a collection of poems written by Charles Collins Van Zandt and published in 1894. The book contains a series of ballads that are set in the coastal town of Newport, Rhode Island. The poems capture the essence of Newport's scenic beauty, its rich history, and the lives of its inhabitants. The ballads are written in a traditional style, with rhyming stanzas and a strong sense of narrative. Many of the poems are stories of love and loss, with themes that are universal and timeless. Others are more whimsical, celebrating the town's unique culture and traditions. The book is a tribute to Newport and its people, and a testament to the enduring power of poetry to capture the essence of a place and time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
