Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Cascade Metre, or Poems Pertaining to Oregon
Poetry is not always a thin fabric woven with the warp and woof of dreams; dissolving like a cloud at the first ray of sunshine; yea, rather it is a species of cloth of gold either adorning the edges of a personality, or the literature of a na tion.
