William Bliss Carman (1861-1929) was a Canadian regional poet of the Maritime Provinces and the New England region of the United States who is remembered chiefly for poignant love poems and one or two rhapsodies in celebration of nature. He was acclaimed as Canada's poet laureate during his later years. Octavo: 58 p. Original brown paper-covered boards, with a printed paper title label. Just a hint of foxing to the contents. The boards are a touch edgeworn, with a small nick to the spine head; otherwise very good. Very good.
