Known among the Middle Atlantic intelligentsia and literati as a
witty and versatile writer, considered by George Washington and the
Chevalier de La Luzerne a gracious and elegant host, Annis Boudinot
Stockton (1736-1801) wrote over a hundred poems on the most
important political and social issues of her day. Only for the Eye
of a Friend brings back into public view the works of a poet whose
published works and manuscrits earned her, in her day, a wide
audience among colonists and international readers alike. The
quality and quantity of Stockton's literary output makes her an apt
counterpart to he seventeenth-century predecessor Anne Bradstreet
and the nineteenth-century poet Emily Dickinson.
