Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Henry W. Longfellow: Biography, Anecdote, Letters, Criticism It is the part of a host who is entertaining a distinguished company to keep himself in the background, and see that his guests are properly introduced and grouped. What is true of a social gathering is true of such a work as the present: it is eclectic in character, a mosaic of the choicest thoughts of many minds, - for the most part digested and incorporated into a continuous narrative by one whose own personality is kept as much as possible out of view, - thus fully justifying the pleasant and characteristic remark of Oliver Wendell Holmes: "Your book," he said, "is like a huckleberry-pie, containing a great many good huckleberries and very little batter." Materials for a biography of Longfellow were abundant and rich. Much had been written about him previous to his death; and, after that event, reminiscences, anecdotes, and reviews appeared in profusion, both at home and abroad. Whatever was of permanent value and interest in this published material has been culled for the present work, due credit being given to the authors in every case. But scattered throughout the volume are very many anecdotes and reminiscences now for the first time published.

'Grave Alice, and laughing Allegra, And Edith with golden hair.' "From this room we pass into a long, narrow hall, running the length of the house. At its head great Jove looks before him with big, unseeing eyes; while on either side are those lovely marble women, who, in spite of Lord Byron's couplet, -- 'I've seen more beauty, ripe and real, Than all the nonsense of their stone ideal, ' still hold their own -- as embodied ideas in human shape -- against their living sisters. "The library is the most beautiful room in the house, --dark and rich in tone, with a look of spacious elegance and home-like comfort. On three sides the walls are lined with books. The bronzes and Japanese screens are studies. "Here hangs a portrait of Liszt. The background is dark, and he is dressed in the long black convent robe. High above his head he holds a lighted candle. The rays shape themselves like a halo round his head, and throw into fine relief the thin, spirited face. "Mr. Longfellow saw him thus for the first time as he stood in the convent-door peering out into the night. The vision impressed itself upon the poet, and he persuaded Liszt to have his picture painted. "From the library a passage leads to the billiard-room, now fallen into disuse, and converted into an aesthetic lumber-room, where one would delight to dream away a rainy day. "The rooms up-stairs are as full of interest as those below. "One suite has been fitted up by Mr. Longfellow's son (Charles Appleton) in Japanese style. The wallpaper is of neutral tint, ornamented with Japanese fans in groups of twos and threes. The heathen gods frown at you, national arms are collected, tables are heaped with Japanese books made on the principle of cat-stairs, and photographs of Japanese beauties, ...

Download or read book The Village Blacksmith written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and published by Candlewick. This book was released on 2020-04-03 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A contemporary envisioning of a nineteenth-century poem pairs artwork by G. Brian Karas with the Henry Wadsworth Longfellow classic. His brow is wet with honest sweat; He earns whate’er he can, And looks the whole world in the face, For he owes not any man. The neighborhood blacksmith is a quiet and unassuming presence, tucked in his smithy under the chestnut tree. Sturdy, generous, and with sadness of his own, he toils through the day, passing on the tools of his trade, and come evening, takes a well-deserved rest. Longfellow’s timeless poem is enhanced by G. Brian Karas’s thoughtful and contemporary art in this modern retelling of the tender tale of a humble craftsman. An afterword about the tools and the trade of blacksmithing will draw readers curious about this age-honored endeavor, which has seen renewed interest in developed countries and continues to be plied around the world.
