Sobre IBD

'Let us, then, be up and doing, / With a heart for any fate.' No American poet has been more loved, or more learned by heart, than Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882).This Northlume Library edition gathers his ringing 'A Psalm of Life' - that great summons to courage and endeavor - with a selection of his best-loved shorter poems: the lone climber of 'Excelsior,' 'The Village Blacksmith,' 'The Day is Done,' 'The Arrow and the Song,' 'The Children’s Hour,' 'My Lost Youth,' and more. Together they make a music of hope, endurance, and the quiet dignity of ordinary life.A newly typeset edition, every poem on its own page, behind an original mixed-media cover illustration by JVB Atelier Designs.
