Hart, A.M., then principal of the Philadelphia High School, penned this comprehensive essay on the works of renowned 16th century English poet Edmund Spenser. Hart first examines the poet's life, his times, and his shorter poems (e.g., Amoretti and Epithamalion). The second part of the book deals entirely with Hart's detailed analysis of The Fairy Queen, Spenser's most prominent work and one of the longest poems in the English Language.
