Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hoosier Bards: With Sundry Wildwood and Other Rhymes If any reader has been tempted to peruse this little volume by the promptings of curiosity, or a desire to see what one Indiana rhymer could find, either good or ill, to say of his neighbors who are poets, I trust he will permit me to arrest him at the threshold long enough to disabuse his mind of any such notion. I have certainly not set myself up as a critic - either wholesale or retail - of the Hoosier poets who are striving (many of them with merited success) to deserve the good opinions of their fellow-men. Far be it from me to attempt such a hazardous task. Poets can talk back, and some of them wield trenchant as well as graceful pens. The bards of whom I have written neither talk nor write, wherefore it is reasonably safe to experiment with their feelings. That they can sing with an excellence exceeding praise none will gainsay. "But why," says one, "do you name these tuneful neighbors of ours ´Hoosier Bards?´ they are not peculiar to Indiana. No such ´pent-up Utica restrains their powers´ nor can it claim them as wholly its own." The objection to my title, thus presented in the form of a query, is, perhaps, well taken.
