By Samuel Griswold Goodrich

Book Overview

A Winter Wreath Of Summer Flowers is a collection of poems and essays written by Samuel Griswold Goodrich and published in 1861. The book is divided into two parts: the first part contains poems that celebrate the beauty of nature, while the second part consists of essays on various topics, including history, literature, and science. The poems in the book are written in a lyrical and romantic style, and often focus on the changing seasons and the natural world. Many of the poems are inspired by the flowers and plants that Goodrich encountered during his travels, and he uses these images to explore themes of love, loss, and mortality. The essays in the book cover a wide range of topics, from the history of the American Revolution to the poetry of William Wordsworth. Goodrich's writing is informative and engaging, and he uses anecdotes and personal experiences to bring his subjects to life. Overall, A Winter Wreath Of Summer Flowers is a charming and thought-provoking collection of poetry and prose that celebrates the beauty of the natural world and the power of human creativity. It is a testament to Goodrich's talent as a writer and his deep appreciation for the world around him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
