Summary: "Snow Bound, and other poems by John Greenleaf Whittier" is a poetry collection written during the late 19th century, specifically in the context of American Romanticism. This work features a significant poem titled "Snow-Bound," which details the experiences of a family during a snowstorm, encapsulating themes of nature, family, and memory. The collection reflects Whittier’s reflections on life, spirituality, and his observations of the natural world. The centerpiece of the collection, "Snow-Bound," narrates a vivid account of a winter evening in a rural farmhouse, where a family, isolated by a snowstorm, gathers around the fire.

Other poems in the collection explore different aspects of life, personal triumphs, educational experiences, and deep connections to nature, showcasing the author's blend of personal experience with broader themes of love, loss, and hope for the future. Through rich imagery and reflective tone, Whittier conveys a deep appreciation for life's simple comforts and the enduring bonds of family and friendship.
