This wonderful collection will appeal to lovers of nature poetry, and will be of particular interest to fans and collectors of Charlton’s beautiful work. The poems contained herein include: 'Betsey and I Are Out', 'How Betsey and I Made Up', 'Home with a Handsomer Man', 'Johnny Rich', 'Out of the Old House, Nancy', 'Over the Hill to the Poor-House', 'Over the Hill from the Poor House', 'Uncle Sammy', 'Tom was Goin’ for a Poet', 'Goin’ Home To-Day', 'Out o’ the Fire', and many more.
