Man-Song

This edition of John G. Neihardt’s Man-Song is the first complete reprinting of the work since 1909. Man-Song expresses a side of Neihardt barely visible from other collections of his poems. They are aggressive love poems, published just months after Neihardt’s fifty-year marriage to Mona Martinsen began. The collection is full of autobiographical hints from Neihardt’s little-known twenties.
