Book Description
Excerpt from The Legendary and Poetical Remains of John Roby The poetry and tales constituting the main part of the present volume, need no apology or introduction. Most of them were finished for publication by the author. But in reference to the biographical sketch which precedes them, a few words will not be out of place. A life so private afforded but few materials. Incidents of early days, tending to illustrate the bent and development of his powers, are derived from memoranda in Mr. Roby's own handwriting, or from well-remembered conversations. The absence of that unconscious self-portraiture, which a man's own letters present, will be found supplied, to some extent, by short reminiscences, kindly furnished by friends. The memoir is not offered as a complete biography. It is simply an outline of a literary life, and of a character; the one as varied in its aspect, as the other was uniform in its tenor.

Book Description
John Roby's 'The Legendary and Poetical Remains of John Roby' is a captivating collection of poetic pieces and legendary tales that showcase the author's vast literary talent. Through his lyrical prose, Roby transports readers to fantastical worlds filled with mystery and wonder. The book's intricate storytelling and rich imagery demonstrate Roby's prowess as a wordsmith within the Romantic literary movement of the early 19th century. His use of symbolism and metaphor adds depth to the narratives, inviting readers to ponder the deeper meanings hidden within the verses. This compilation of Roby's works provides insight into the author's creative mind and his ability to craft timeless tales that resonate with readers of all generations. John Roby, a renowned poet and storyteller of his time, drew inspiration from the folklore and legends of his native England, which greatly influenced his writing style. His keen observance of human nature and his fascination with the supernatural are evident in his works, making him a distinct voice in the Romantic literary canon. I highly recommend 'The Legendary and Poetical Remains of John Roby' to any reader with a penchant for poetry, folklore, and mystical storytelling. This book not only showcases Roby's talent as a writer but also offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of imaginative worlds he has created. It is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the depths of Romantic literature.
