Wilderness Songs

This second volume of verse by Grace Hazard Conkling -- American poet, author and musician -- ranges in theme from close observations of the natural world to the loss and desolation of World War I. Having taught English for 34 years at Smith College, Conkling remains honored to this day with an annual poetry residency in her name.
