Opis: Poems (Classic Reprint) - Gassaway Frank Harrison

Excerpt from Poems

Although widely known for many years as one of the most popular and universally copied of the humorist fraternity it was not until the publication of his poem "The Pride of Battery B" that Frank Gassaway became, overnight, as it were, still more widely accepted as a poet whose gift of touching the chords of the human heart made his verses household words wherever English was spoken.

Written over a generation ago this poem by a Southern writer was an echo of the olive branch spirit of Finch's "The Blue and The Gray" and its instant popularity south of Mason and Dixon's Line evinced that its appeal to the forget-and-forgive spirit of the veterans on both sides of the great Civil War was welcome to all parts of our country.

Within six months after its appearance in the Examiner of San Francisco it was copied in over two thousand papers, and in fact it found its way into print wherever the English tongue is spoken. Up to this date it has appeared in fifty-two books of recitations, and has been recited on the stage and elsewhere countless thousands of times, only Sheridan's Ride and "Jim Bludsoe" rivaling it in popularity among elocutionists.
