Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poetical Writings of Elizabeth Oakes Smith The "Sinless Child and other Poems," by Mrs. Smith, first published in 1842, was introduced to the public by Mr. John Keese, editor of "The Poets of America illustrated by her Painters." The volume met with a favorable reception. It is no longer in the market. Since its publication, Mrs. Smith has written some of her finest pieces. The present more complete and elegant edition of her poetical writings, is issued to meet the general and increasing demand for them. Mrs. Smith is a native of Portland, in the state of Maine. Descended, on the father´s side, from Thomas Prince, one of the early Puritan governors of the Plymouth colony, and claiming, through the Oakeses, the same early identification with the first European planters of our soil, she may readily be supposed to have that characteristic which is so rarely found among us, Americanism; and her writings in their department may be regarded as the genuine expression of an American mind.
