The New Anthology of American Poetry: Traditions and Revolutions, Beginnings to 19002003 Choice Outstanding Academic Title Volume I begins with a generous selection of Native American materials, then spans the years from the establishment of the American colonies to about 1900, a world on the brink of World War I and the modern era. Part One focuses on poetry from the very beginnings through the end of the eighteenth century. The expansion and development of a newly forged nation engendered new kinds of poetry. Part Two includes works from the early nineteenth century through the time of the Civil War. The poems in Part Three reflect the many issues affecting a nation undergoing tumultuous change: the Civil War, immigration, urbanization, industrialization, and cultural diversification. Such well-recognized names as Anne Bradstreet, Edward Taylor, Phillis Wheatley, Edgar Allan Poe, Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, and Stephen Crane appear in this anthology alongside such less frequently anthologized poets as George Horton, Sarah Helen Whitman, Elizabeth Oakes-Smith, Frances Harper, Rose Terry Cooke, Helen Hunt Jackson, Adah Menken, Sarah Piatt, Ina Coolbrith, Emma Lazarus, Albery Whitman, Owl Woman (Juana Manwell) Sadakichi Hartmann, Ernest Fenollosa, James Weldon Johnson, Paul Laurence Dunbar, and--virtually unknown as a poet--Abraham Lincoln. It also includes poems and songs reflecting the experiences of a variety of racial and ethnic groups. |

on page 542 is a error of names n generations. not sure if will reach editors and record keepers lol but many get it wrong . decent book though but many get facts wrongs . read below hope explains bit .John Ellis Redcloud was Dewitt Clinton Duncan nephew from his brother Walter Adair Duncan who was named after Walter n Clinton father John Duncan . it is worth noting john ellis redcloud also had a son named after none else then his uncle Dewitt Clinton Duncan lol was born on 24 May 1912 in Tahlequah,Okla.. He died on 18 Oct 1991 in Claremore,Roger Co.Okla
book list that DeWitt Clinton Duncan aka Too Qua Stee was born to John Ellis Redcloud Duncan and his wife Elizabeth Aercrombie Duncan ... ellis was her grand son ..
John Duncan is not the same John Ellis Redcloud Duncan Birth: Mar. 26, 1860 Death: Jul., 1947 ..
John [ER] Duncan married Susan "Susie" Elizabeth Carselowey .
thus you listed wrong John Duncan as Redcloud was not DWC's father . as red cloud was born after Dewitt Clinton Duncan aka Too Qua Stee....
oops lol need to check dates next time is confusing
