About this edition

No American poet has been more loved, or more learned by heart, than Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

This edition gathers his ringing A Psalm of Life, that great summons to courage and endeavour, 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.
