About the authors

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

1807–1882

One of the most widely read American poets of the 19th century, he brought history, legend, and everyday feeling into musical, memorable verse. His poems and narrative works helped make poetry a central part of family reading in the United States and far beyond.
