Ballads Of The Hills (1908)

Ballads of the Hills is a collection of poems written by John Foster and published in 1908. The book contains a total of 40 ballads, each one exploring the lives of people who lived in the hills and mountains of the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The poems are written in a rhythmic and lyrical style, and they cover a range of themes, including love, loss, adventure, and the beauty of nature. Many of the ballads feature characters who are struggling to survive in harsh and unforgiving environments, and their stories are told with a great deal of empathy and understanding. The book is considered a classic of American poetry and has been praised for its evocative descriptions of the natural world, its vivid characterizations, and its powerful emotional impact.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
