Books with author Frost Robert

First published in 1923, “New Hampshire” by famed American poet Robert Frost, is one of the most beautiful and famous collection of poems in American literature. The book contains many of Frost’s most well-known and beloved poems, such as “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”, “Nothing Gold Can Stay”, “Fire and Ice”, and “The Need of Being Versed in Country Things”. Frost won the first of his four Pulitzer Prizes for “New Hampshire” and he would go on to be awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 1960 for his poetry and was named the poet laureate of Vermont in 1961. Frost’s immortal poems have become an essential part of the fabric of American culture and continue to inspire modern poets, authors, film makers, and artists. Some of literature’s most famous and often quoted lines may be found in this collection by a true master of verse. Frost taught English for many years and encouraged his students to capture the various inflections, tones, and cadences of the spoken English language in his writing, an approach he perfected in his own work and referred to as “the sound of sense”. This timeless collection belongs in the library of everyone who appreciates American literature and poetry. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and includes the woodcut illustrations by J. J. Lankes which appeared in the first edition.

Collected here are 98 poems that made Robert Frost’s reputation as the greatest American Poet of his or any other time. Uniquely powerful and uniquely American Frost's poems are important and approachable.

Robert Lee Frost (1874-1963) was a popular American poet. In 1894 he sold his first poem, My Butterfly: An Elegy to the New York Independent for fifteen dollars. He married Elinor Miriam White in Harvard University, which he attended for two years. He did well, but left to support his growing family and worked on a farm, purchased by his Grandfather, for nine years. He wrote early in the mornings, producing many of the poems that would later become famous. His work frequently employed themes from rural life in New England, using the setting to examine complex social and philosophical themes. His attempts at farming were not successful, and Frost returned to education as an English teacher at Pinkerton Academy, then at the New Hampshire Normal School in Plymouth, New Hampshire. In 1912, Frost sailed with his family to Great Britain, living first in Glasgow, before settling in Beaconsfield, outside London. His first book of poetry, A Boy's Will, was published in 1913. Frost wrote some of his best work while in England. A popular and often-quoted poet, Frost was honoured frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes.
