George Hendrick is professor of English at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Willene Hendrick is an independent scholar. The Hendricks are closely associated with the Sandburg estate and for years have worked with the large Sandburg collection at the University of Illinois. George Hendrick’s other books include To Reach Eternity: The Letters of James Jones and Sandburg’s More Rootabagas; together the Hendricks have edited Selected Poems of Carl Sandburg.
These unfamiliar early poems reveal a vigorous young talent whose
artistic technique was as experimental as his social vision was
unblinkered.

Vigorous and original...Sandburg still has much to say to us.

An absolutely exhilarating read...a genuine literary event, a
virtual rediscovery of an American treasure.
*Michael Van Walleghen*
An excellent overview of one of America's most widely recognized
20th century poets. It is readable, informative and fascinating
study.
