Best remembered today as the author of The Song of Hiawatha,
Longfellow continues to be one of the most popular poets in
American literary history. This book is a guide to his life and
writings. A brief introductory essay overviews Longfellow's life
and accomplishments. A chronology then summarizes the chief events
in his career. Hundreds of alphabetically arranged entries follow,
discussing individual poems, his other writings, his family members
and professional associates, and topics related to his life and
literary achievements. Entries list works for further reading, and
the volume closes with a selected, general bibliography. Longfellow
has also enjoyed fame worldwide; in England, his poems outsold
those of Browning and Tennyson. In addition to being a gifted poet,
Longfellow had a brilliant career as a college professor. He wrote
numerous critical works and translations, and was also a leading
American Dante scholar. He frequently wrote letters, and his
admirers often sought his advice on personal and professional
matters.
