Vintage Verse - James Ball Naylor - Bog

Vintage Verse is a special collection of poems that are as apropos today as when they were written between 1889 and the mid-1940s by James Ball Naylor. The poems were culled from treasured family scrapbooks by Lucile Naylor as a tribute to her father, the best-selling author of Ralph Marlowe in 1901. Most of the poems appeared in newspapers and magazine but were not included in any of the seven volumes of collected verse that Naylor published during his lifetime. His poetry was written for ordinary folks and touches on the beauty of nature, portrays family life, pays tribute to the flag and the veterans of our wars, addresses political issues and tickles the funny bone. The poems in Vintage Verse linger and take you on a journey down memory lane--there's a little something for everybody. The volume includes special selections that are appropriate for this, the first in a Tribute Series to James Ball Naylor. It is edited and annotated by Theresa Marie Flaherty, the author of The Final Test - A Biography of James Ball Naylor.
