| Summary |
Robert Frost is considered the quintessential New England poet, though he was born in California. Left penniless by the death of her free-spending husband, Robbie's mother had to move her family east, where they relied on the charity of relatives. Young Robert would grow to love the landscape and make it a defining feature of his poetry. Though he constantly struggled to provide for his family, Frost eked out a living as a farmer, teacher, and poet, until his poetry began to draw positive notice.--p. [4] of cover. |
