From dramatic and tragic stories to powerful images of nature-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poems capture an exciting period of American life. Richly colored illustrations capture the strong personalities of a variety of colorful characters, the lovliness of different landscapes throughout the seasons, and both the leafy light of sunshine and the hot orange glow of a winter's fire.
