The Englishman and Other Poems

"The Englishman and Other Poems" is a collection of poems by author Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Though of American heritage, some of the poems are about England, for as she says, «We claim our place, as a separate race, Or a self-created clan; Till there comes a day when we like to say, 'We are kin of the Englishman.'» Other titles included in the collection are: 'The Muse and the Poet'; 'The Spinster'; 'The Tavern of Future Times'; 'In England'; and 'Memory's Mansion'. The preface features the poem 'The Queen's Last Ride', a poem written on the day of Queen Victoria's funeral.
