These volumes present the works of eleven poets writing in the
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Volume 1 contains work by
Mary E. Tucker Lambert and the notorious Adah Isaacs Menken. The
other three volumes contain works by nine other poets.
Surprisingly, only one of them (Lizelia Moorer) protests at the
treatment of her race during this period of social upheaval and
injustice. The other poets treat the traditional themes - love,
nature, death, Christian idealism and morality, family - in
conventional forms and language. As interesting for the themes that
they address as for those that they ignore, these selections offer
a unique sampling of poetic voices that until now have gone largely
unheard.
