Republished here for young readers and collectors of Americana, The Works of Eugene Field is sure to delight audiences young and old. Volume IV of this twelve-volume set, Poems of Childhood, is the third collection of poetry in the series, separated into two sections, "With Trumpet and Drum," and "Love-Songs of Childhood." It contains several verses also printed in Volume I, A Little Book of Western Verse, which was the way Field arranged it when originally planning the series. EUGENE FIELD (1850-1895) was an American author known for his humorous essays and children's poetry. Interested in many subjects and unable to decide what to do with his life, Field attended three colleges-Williams College, Knox College, and University of Missouri-tried his hand at acting, law, and journalism, and traveled Europe before meeting his wife and becoming city editor for the St. Joseph Gazette in St. Joseph, Missouri. He wrote and edited for several newspapers, establishing himself as a humor writer and publishing poetry. He died of a heart-attack at 45.
