1920. Lindsay, the American poet born to a family of evangelical Disciples of Christ transferred his crusading spirit to converting Americans to a love of poetry. His poetry explored American subjects and heroes, with patriotism and a mystic faith in the earth and nature. This is a collection of his long and short verses including Bryan, Bryan, Bryan, Bryan and for several poems with African-American and jazz themes. It is also notable for Lindsay's prose introduction; A Word on California, Photoplays, and Saint Francis. The book is divided into five parts titled: The Longer Pieces with Interludes; A Rhymed Scenario-Some Poem Games-and the Like; Cobwebs and Cables; Rhymes Concerning the Late World War and the Next War; and Rhymes of the Middle West and Springfield, Illinois.
