Dedicated to William Marion Reedy, the editor who first pressed the Greek Anthology on him, this 1918 collection follows Spoon River Anthology. Masters writes of the river flowing toward the Gulf, lake boats, Johnny Appleseed, Samuel Butler and a friend who sets a skull on the dinner table, in free verse and narrative poems.

A substantial later collection for readers who know Spoon River and want more of Masters’s voice. Download the free EPUB.
