Publisher's Synopsis
November Boughs is a collection of poems and essays by Walt Whitman, one of the most celebrated American poets of the 19th century. The book was first published in 1888 and contains a variety of pieces that explore themes such as nature, politics, and spirituality. The poems in November Boughs are characterized by their free verse style, which was a departure from the more traditional forms of poetry that were popular at the time. The essays in the book offer insights into Whitman's views on a range of topics, including democracy, literature, and the role of the artist in society. Overall, November Boughs is a testament to Whitman's unique voice and his enduring influence on American literature.Beautiful as the song was, the original `Locksley Hall' of half a century ago was essentially morbid, heart-broken, finding fault with everything, especially the fact of money's being made (as it ever must be, and perhaps should be) the paramount matter in worldly affairs; Every door is barr'd with gold, and opens but to golden keys.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
