Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of poems by the American poet, Thomas Buchanan Read. The poems are varied in subject matter, but they are all characterized by their lyrical beauty and their deep feeling for nature and for the human condition. Read was a dedicated abolitionist and many of the poems in this collection reflect his strong opposition to slavery. Several of the poems are narrative in nature, telling stories of love, loss, and redemption. Others are more reflective, exploring the themes of nature, mortality, and the search for meaning in life. The book's title, "Summer Story, And Other Poems," suggests the variety of subject matter contained within, and the poems themselves are sure to appeal to a wide range of readers.
