Description:Never until now has been seen on printed page a letter that passed between Edgar Allan Poe and the man who—when Poe was two years and eleven months old—became his father by adoption. Wherefore everything that has been written about that most important element in the formation of the poet’s character and development of his genius—^relations between him and his foster-parents—has been largely guesswork. So much tradition has been handed down about Poe that he has become almost a legendary figure in American life. His schoolmates and playmates in Richmond, his classmates at the University of Virginia and at Wed Point, his friends—men and women—and, alas, his enemies have furnished a mass of recollections which biographers have sifted and sifted in attempts to find the real man, or have woven into romances. But here is his bared soul! Here in a book that is concerned with a packet of till now unpublished letters and the flood of new light they throw upon the character and career of the mysterious man, poet, thinker, writer of tales, essays, whose readers, it seems, mud know where he was and what he was doing and thinking every day in the forty years of his life. And here gaps in his strange life-story are filled up.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
