1886 CIVIL WAR Poetry 1st/1st Bugle-Echoes Whitman Longfellow Whittier Emerson



“Bugle-Echoes: A Collection of the Poetry of the Civil War Northern and Southern,” curated by Francis Fisher Browne, is a discerning anthology that captures the essence of Civil War era sentiments through poetry. Distilled from a wide array of verses penned during and shortly after the tumultuous period, this compilation eschews mere patriotic fervor for literary depth, presenting a curated selection that embodies the true poetic spirit evoked by the war. This volume unites the voices of the North and South, showcasing works by luminaries like Walt Whitman, William Cullen Bryant, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, John Greenleaf Whittier, and Ralph Waldo Emerson, among others. The collection is enhanced by eight full-page engravings, adding a visual dimension to the poignant words. Brownes editorial expertise ensures a balance between historical significance and artistic merit, offering readers a nuanced perspective on Civil War literature devoid of sectional bias from those who lived through it.
