John G. Whittier: The Poet Of Freedom is a biography written by William Sloane Kennedy about the life and work of John Greenleaf Whittier, an American poet and abolitionist who lived during the 19th century.

The biography delves into Whittier's personal life, including his relationships with family and friends, as well as his political and social activism. It also examines the historical context in which Whittier lived, including the Civil War and the fight for abolition, and how his poetry and writings reflected and influenced these events. Throughout the book, Kennedy analyzes Whittier's poetry, providing insights into its themes, style, and significance. He also includes excerpts from Whittier's work, allowing readers to experience the power and beauty of his writing firsthand. Overall, John G. Whittier: The Poet Of Freedom offers a comprehensive and engaging portrait of a prominent American figure, exploring his contributions to literature and social justice and shedding light on the cultural and political landscape of his time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
