The Letters of William Cullen Bryant: Volume II, 1836–1849William Cullen Bryant, Thomas G. Voss Fordham University Press, 2019年11月5日 - 568 頁 The second volume of William Cullen Bryant's letters opens in 1836 as he has just returned to New York from an extended visit to Europe to resume charge of the New York Evening Post, brought near to failure during his absence by his partner William Leggett's mismanagement. At the period's close, Bryant has found in John Bigelow an able editorial associate and astute partner, with whose help he has brought the paper close to its greatest financial prosperity and to national political and cultural influence. |
