Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poetical and Prose Writings of Dr. John Lofland, the Milford Bard: Consisting of Sketches in Poetry and Prose With a Portrait of the Author and a Sketch of His Life Since the death of the Milford Bard the desire has been repeatedly expressed by his numerous friends and admirers, that his Writings should be collected and published in a much more enlarged and extended edition, than has heretofore been submitted to the public. It is with the view of meeting the demand thus presented, that this volume of his works has been compiled. It contains his best pieces, both of Poetry and Prose, the most of which have not appeared in any previous volume. It is due, alike, to the author and the public, that the literary efforts of one so well known and appreciated as the Milford Bard, should be collected and embodied in a form in which they may be preserved by the lovers of light literature, and read as opportunities may be afforded. Many an hour may be spent, both pleasantly and profitably, in the perusal of the sketches of life and character, and poetic effusions, which the generous-hearted Bard possessed so much delight in preparing for his readers. As a contributor to many of the most popular and interesting periodicals of his day, the Bard obtained a very considerable reputation, and his productions have been popular wherever circulated. In his younger years, being favorably known as a correspondent of "The Casket," a Monthly Magazine, and "The Saturday Evening Post," a Weekly Newspaper, both of extensive circulation, his reputation as a writer was established, and his productions were much sought after. Both the Casket and Saturday Evening Post were published in Philadelphia, and being the media through which the Bard and other authors presented their writings to the public, their circulation extended to all parts of the country.
