Excerpt from The Life of Edgar Allan Poe, Personal and Literary, Vol. 1: With His Chief Correspondence, With Men of LettersThat work has become antiquated by its omissions; and it seems to me proper now to gather up my earlier and later labors in a more full and precise biography.I have aimed to make this, in the main, a literary biography; as such it has two special interests, in that it is a life led outside of New England, and that it embodies much contemporaneous literary history not involved in any other life of our greater writers. I have aimed also to present in the text the facts of Poe's career as they lie in my own mind; in the Notes I have allowed others to speak freely, for praise or dispraise, in order that all may have a fair field where there is so great controversy. In the former biography I excluded much, and suppressed much, of what I thought the world would willingly let die; but this proved a fruitless attempt to assist oblivion, and I have, in the present work, at least noticed all that has been said or alleged on the subject.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
