Mrs. Longfellow: Selected Letters and Journals
Author: Fanny Appleton Longfellow
Publisher: New York : Longmans, Green
ISBN:
Category : Authors' spouses
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
Fanny knew Longfellow as no other human being ever knew him. In her pages we see him and his work as they have never appeared before. Through Longfellow, moreover, and through her own family connections as well, she knew many other distinguished men and women-New Englanders best of all, of course, yet by no means exclusively. In these pages, we catch vivid glimpses of Emerson, Hawthorne, and Whittier which we should not otherwise possess.
