Whittier, John Greenleaf, 1807-1892

http://n2t.net/ark:/99166/w6h814zt (person)

A deeply committed and active abolitionist, he wrote many of his poems with a political agenda, although distinguished by an open-minded tolerance so often lacking in his fellow abolitionists. Although his works are somewhat marred by overtly political and overly sentimental works, the core of his output stands as fine, lyrical American verse.
