Poe's Brother: The Poems of William Henry Leonard Poe; Edgar Allen Poe's Brother (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798366670272)

Few people are even aware that Edgar Allan Poe had an elder brother. That he had, and that the relations of the two young poets were both interesting and romantic. William Henry Leonard Poe, the elder brother of Edgar Allan Poe, was also a poet. He did not live long enough to show whether he too, like his younger brother, might have too attained fame.

His work, however, given a similarity in temperament and attitude, tend to throw a helpful light on one of the most obscure and mysterious passages in the life of a great poet. The material here collected therefore represents all the surviving prose and poetry by Poe's brother - now representing the collected Poems of William Henry Leonard Poe, together with a short account of his tragic life, an early romance of Edgar Allan Poe and some other unknown incidents in the lives of the two Poe brothers ... with a preface, introduction, comment and facsimiles of newly discovered Poe documents.
A true must-have for any collector, critic, or reader of the works of Poe.
