Colonial Ballads, Sonnets And Other Verse is a collection of poems written by Margaret Junkin Preston in 1887. The book is a tribute to the colonial era of American history, featuring ballads and sonnets that capture the spirit of the time. The poems are written in a traditional style, with a focus on rhyme and meter, and they cover a range of topics, from love and loss to patriotism and war. Many of the poems draw inspiration from historical events and figures, such as George Washington and the American Revolution. The book also includes a number of original ballads, which tell stories of life in the colonies and the struggles of early settlers. Overall, Colonial Ballads, Sonnets And Other Verse is a beautiful and evocative collection of poetry that offers a glimpse into the rich history of America’s colonial past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
