Publisher's Synopsis
Robert Dinsmoor's poetry is perhaps the greatest achievement of Scotch-Irish writing in the 19th century. His work frames a vibrant culture whose ties of faith, family and friendship criss-crossed the Atlantic. He records people, places and events with humour and compassion, and was rightfully accorded the status of the 'Rustic Bard' of New Hampshire. This collection brings together the long out-of-print poetry of this great poet.
