Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Text of the Cambridge ed. of 1893, which was edited by H.E. Scudder and published under title: The complete poetical works of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

This single volume, blank verse translation of The Divine Comedy includes an introduction, maps of Dante's Italy, Hell, Purgatory, Geocentric Universe, and political panorama of the thirteenth and early fourteenth century, diagrams and notes providing the reader with invaluable guidance.

Longfellow's immortal poem comes to life in this timeless tale of bravery and devotion. Half man, half god, Hiawatha is sent to his people to teach them the ways of progress and survival. But before he can complete his mission, he must battle the evil demon who has brought a deadly plague down upon his people.
