Born to ex-slave parents, Dunbar began writing at a very early age and had even published his first poems by the age of 16 in a local newspaper. Much of his work was written in the \"African-American Vernacular\" associated with the antebellum South, although he also employed conventional English in his novels and poems. Dunbar was among the first African-American writers to garner international acclaim for their work. This volume contains a complete collection of Dunbar's powerful poetry, presented here in a brand new edition for the enjoyment of a new generation. A fantastic collection of powerful poetry that offers a unique glimpse into the lives of African Americans at the turn of the century. Highly recommended for those interested in African-American history and literature. Other notable works by this author include: \"Oak and Ivy\" (1892), \"Majors and Minors\" (1896), and \"Lyrics of Lowly Life\" (1896). Ragged Hand is proudly republishing this classic collection of poetry, complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 688\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.51 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 27, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52631353458995,"sku":"9781443774420","price":54.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/kKAX_E6qK_9781443774420.webp?v=1762178003","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-complete-poems-of-paul-laurence-dunbar-paperback-2","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
