"Wadsworth: A Journey Through Time and Poetry" Fort Wadsworth, located on Staten Island, stands as a testament to the rich history of this land. Built in the 1800s, it serves as a reminder of the strategic importance it held during times of conflict. As we explore its walls, we are transported back to an era when brave Pilgrims embarked on their voyage to America. In the 1620s, John Alden was one such Pilgrim settler who played a significant role in establishing the Plymouth colony. His story is beautifully depicted in Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem "The Courtship of Miles Standish. " Illustrated in a 19th-century American edition, we witness Alden's dilemma when asked by his friend Miles Standish to woo Priscilla Mullens on his behalf. Longfellow's poetic genius also extends beyond this tale. In "Hiawatha Fishing for Nahma, " he takes us into Native American folklore where Hiawatha skillfully fishes for sturgeon Nahma. The colored engraving brings these mythical creatures to life before our eyes. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow continues to captivate readers with his timeless works. In "The Courtship of Miles Standish, " published in 1859, he delves into themes of love and longing against the backdrop of early colonial America. Wood engravings by artists like George Henry Boughton and John Gilbert further enhance our visual experience while reading these verses. As we delve deeper into Longfellow's world through intricate wood engravings by brothers Dalziel or delicate etchings by Samuel Hollyer, we gain insight into the poet himself - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882). An influential figure in American literature, his words continue to resonate with readers today.
