John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-92), American poet, born near Haverhill, Massachusetts, and largely self-educated. The young poet's earliest work attracted the attention of the abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, editor of the Free Press newspaper in Newburyport, Massachusetts, who asked him to contribute articles. Thus Whittier began a long career as contributing editor, essayist, and poet. A deeply religious man, Whittier followed the Quaker faith of his parents and is often called the Quaker poet. As a Quaker deeply concerned with politics and social welfare, he served in the Massachusetts legislature, was founder of the Liberty party in 1839, and participated in the founding of the Republican party in 1854. For more than 30 years, Whittier devoted himself to the abolition of slavery in the United States. Whittier's earliest works, including his Legends of New England in Prose and Verse (1831), were pastoral evocations of the rugged farm life of New England. With the end of the American Civil War, Whittier returned to his pastoral themes. Often considered his masterpiece and certainly his most popular work is the narrative poem Snow-Bound (1866). Based on the poet's childhood memories, this work is representative of his sincere, moralistic, yet emotional style.

whittier, john greenleaf burning drift wood Burning Drift Wood John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) Before my drift-wood fire I sit, And see, with every waif I burn, Old dreams and fancies coloring it, And folly's unlaid ghosts return. O ships of mine, whose swift keels cleft The enchanted sea on which they sailed, Are these poor fragments only left Of vain desires and hopes that failed? Did I not watch from them the light Of sunset on my towers in Spain, And see, far off, uploom in sight The Fortunate Isles I might not gain? Did sudden lift of fog reveal Arcadia's vales of song and spring, And did I pass, with grazing keel, The rocks whereon the sirens sing? Have I not drifted hard upon The unmapped regions lost to man, The cloud-pitched tents of Prester John, The palace domes of Kubla Khan? Did land winds blow from jasmine flowers

Poet John Greenleaf Whittier praised NH for its abolitionist stand in 1846. But did we deserve it? For commentary on Whittier and Hale click here Abolitionists in NH John Greenleaf Whittier wrote his short poem "New Hampshire" to honor the Granite State's bold unique stand against slavery in 1846, decades before the Emancipation Proclamation. The final couplet, often quoted, is a stirring call to arms against human bondage with New Hampshire leading the battle: Courage, then, Northern hearts! Be firm, be true; What one brave State hath done, can ye not also do? The reality is less glorious. In fact, New Hampshire's early track record in opposing discrimination, like most of the industrialized Yankee North would win no gold metals. Like its southern cousins , NH started out as a slave state. Some of its stately seaport homes were built from slave trade profits. By the Revolution, African-American slaves served white Seacoast owners in most prestigious families the Cutts, the Whipples, the Ladds, the Lears, the Langdons, the Wentworths. Slave owning, North and South, was a sign of affluence and power. Although the "business" of slavery was outlawed in NH soon after the Revolution, no formal emancipation was ever issued. Throughout most of the 1800s, NH's anti-slavery efforts were tepid. Many early abolitionists were clergymen opposed to the immorality of bondage, rather than the inequality of races. The state had its own abolitionist newspaper, two of them in fact, but the issue was mired in politics and infighting. Whigs, Federalists, anti-Federalists, Independents, Democrats, Democratic Independents and Democratic Republicans tossed the abolition issue around like a hot potato, defining and redefining themselves around this key issue.

Keeping track of the poet's houses Victorian poet John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892) loaned his name to a lot of real estate. At least four houses claim his name, not to mention a mountain in New Hampshire and towns, streets, inns and schools all over the nation. The bestselling author of the "barefoot boy" and popularized Maud Muller and Barbara Frietchie still clings to a remnant of his literary fame, even today. This early postcard tour focuses on Amesbury, MA and the house he called home most of his adult life. Whittier had lived here 30 years and was 59 before his fame suddenly blossomed. We picked up these postcards in the gift shop there to accompany our own Disposable Camera Tour of the poet's domicile. Compare our photos with the postcards to see how little has changed in the last hundred years since the house was established as a museum. In addition , we've added images of Whittier's birthplace in Haverhill, MA, his place on Oak Knoll in Danvers, MA, and an early image of the house where Whittier died in North Hampton, NH. He died in the Granite State that he loved and pictured so often in his poetry. - JDR We visit the Amesbury Home See more Early Postcards Read Whittier poems and articles TOURING WHITTIER HOMES The Whittier House 86 Friend Street Amesbury, MA 01913
