A very good copy in original condition untrimmed. Kidd emigrated to Canada from Ireland at a young age and after being rejected for the priesthood he began publishing poetry. The epic main poem consumes over half the text with nearly forty shorter poems comprising the rest. Kidd claims that he travelled extensively among the Indians of Upper Canada and his poetry carries great sympathy for native peoples and their exploitation at the hands of European settlers. He writes that the "Huron Chief" was composed "on the inner rind of birch bark during my travels through the immense forests of America and under many difficulties and privations." He also claims that the poems would soon be published in native languages. SABIN 37700. TPL 1585. Printed at the Office of the Herald and New Gazette hardcover books

Yet Parry's articles and French dissertations--highly original contributions to the study of Homer--have until now been difficult to obtain. The Making of Homeric Verse for the first time collects these landmark works in one volume together with Parry's unpublished M.A. thesis and extracts from his Yugoslavian journal which contains notes on Serbo-Croatian poetry and its relation to Homer. Adam Parry the late son of the scholar has translated the French dissertations written an introduction on the life and intellectual development of his father and provided a survey of later work on Homer conducted in Parry's glorious tradition."--Amazon.
