PREFACE.

volume concludes my work on the bibliography of the
try of North America.

ugh much interesting material was published in the de-
)wing, the lateness of the period really bars it from being
is "early." So many titles could be unearthed in the
vered by the years 1821-1840 that a volume considerably
an the present would be the result and little of interest
antiquarian standpoint would result therefrom,
period represented in the volume now oflFered is of im-
from more than one standpoint, as it not only brings to
names of several of the better-known names among the
of the first quarter of the Nineteenth Century, but also
fact that it covers two most important events in the early
f the Nation, The Embargo and The War of 1812.
brmer event is also of interest, as it introduced to Ameri-
;rs the first poet of note which America had up to that
duced.

i^hile Bryant stands almost alone among the names cata-
i the following pages as a writer of the first rank, many
mes will be discovered of writers who are still remem-
d whose works are yet read to some extent by all inter-
the study of American Poetry — ^and there are such,
nagazine and newspaper writers notwithstanding,
•ugh the average book collector does not include Ameri-
Ty in his itinerary, I firmly believe that this important
f American Literature will not be much longer neglected,
ese volumes shall in any way help toward that end I shall
; than repaid for the interest I have taken in the subject.
Dsing I wish to thank Mr. Harry L. Koopman and his
he Brown University Library, and the other friends who
m an interest in the work and have by their aid made my

The only copy of this, the first edition which I have seen, is imper-

some purpose known only to the publishers and author, as the copy I
have seen was in the finest possible condition and in the original blue

tained half titles to the Argument and the poem itself, or they may have
been blank leaves.
