Sinopsis
Excerpt from Centennial Splendor: A Poem
Inspired with Calliope's most holy fire. Supreme peace reigned on the streets of our city, And nothing was heard, save now and then The measured tread of some guarding sentinel, Passing and repassing again and again.

Excerpt from Centennial Splendor: A Poem
Centennial Splendor.
'Twas dawn of the morning; a holy calm
Enshrouded the serenely lovely sky,
And hung, like Mahomet's Peri's dream,
Over and around our beautiful city.
Morpheus had descended, and, with a wand
Of mysterious magic, closed the eyes
Of weary thousands, and metamorphosed
Their restless brains to dreamy ecstacies.
They slept; all forgetful of the pleasures
And the many sorrows of the fretful past,
Unconscious of the mysterious future
In which their fair and hopeful dreams were cast
The moon was gone, but bright and silent stars,
Like Argus eyes, thickly clustered the sky,
Twinkling and glowing, in thousands of forms,
With many shading shadows and royal dye.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a deeply evocative and beautifully written account of a London circus as it travels through America in the late 19th century. Through its detailed descriptions, the author offers a glimpse not only into the grandeur of the circus itself but also the political and social climate of the time. This book is published in the backdrop of the American Civil War and explores themes of nationalism, unity, freedom, and democracy. The author shows these themes by contrasting the glamour and spectacle of the circus with the harsh realities of war and the struggles of everyday life. Through a series of vivid anecdotes and rich imagery, the author examines humanity's capacity for both great beauty and great cruelty. This book is an absorbing and thought-provoking read that will appeal to anyone interested in American history, performing arts, or the human condition. The author's evocative prose and insightful observations make this book an unforgettable exploration of a transformative period in American history.
