New Hampshire

Robert Frost | Poetry | Photography

This deluxe, hard-cover book, printed on premium paper with photographs, most in full color, of Robert Frost and nature scenes that inspired his work, was designed to be a Collector’s Edition. It also features a thought-provoking introduction that focuses on Frost’s childhood and provides information that makes him more understandable as an adult. It is further annotated with images of Frost and his home, and carefully chosen images of the sights he saw on a daily basis. It is the perfect gift for the Robert Frost fan.

New Hampshire is the book that put Robert Frost on the map. Amazingly, despite years of writing, Frost did not publish a book until he was 39. It was not until 1923 that he attracted national attention with the publication of New Hampshire, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize the following year. He also won Pulitzer Prizes for his books, “Collected Poems” (1930), “A Further Range” (1936) and “A Witness Tree” (1942).

“When this edition of “New Hampshire” by Robert Frost arrived in the mail I was first struck by the beautiful, hardcover format, and then by the striking color pictures that so well illustrated my great-grandfather’s Pulitzer Prize-winning poetry. It is one thing to read his insightful and delightful poetry in paperback, but it is another experience altogether to read his eternally truthful words on premium paper in a coffee table book format. I know he would be impressed with the love that went into publishing this book. Re-reading “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” and other poems brought back memories from my childhood of his walks with us children in the woods and of the burro he bought for us to ride. Can you imagine having Robert Frost as a guide on a stroll through the woods? I also enjoyed the introduction because I learned some things about my great-grandfather that I did not know.” -Ellie Frost
