Ballads of New England

"Ballads of New England" by John Greenleaf Whittier is a powerful collection of poems that captures the spirit and struggles of New England in the 19th century. With vivid storytelling, Whittier explores themes of social justice, abolitionism, and the daily lives of the people in this region. The ballads evoke the hardships of labor, the beauty of nature, and the fight for freedom, all while reflecting the moral and political landscape of the time. Whittier’s emotional and often bold verses invite readers to reflect on the human experience and the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
"Ballads of New England" is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1870.
