Excerpt from Studies in Longfellow, Whittier, Holmes and Lowell: Outlines and Topics for Study, With Questions and References
Some years ago there appeared in the Riverside Literature Series Studies in Longfellow: Outlines for Schools, Conversation Classes, and Home Studies, by W. C. Gannett. The book has had a steady sale, and has met with such favor as to suggest a like treatment of other New England poets. We now present, there fore, Mr. Gannett's book, enlarged by the addition of similar but less extended studies of Whittier, Holmes, and Lowell.
Outlines of this kind, especially any so brief as the later ones, are designed to be suggestive rather than exhaustive, and the good teacher will supplement them in ways of his own.
They will have served their purpose if they shall lighten somewhat the teacher's labor, and shall help to stimulate in the pupils a genuine love of our great poets and a thorough study of their works.
