Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: Other Resources
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is a major cultural figure and there is a vast amount of information about him, his life, his work, and his family available for study.

A guide to the Wadsworth-Longfellow House featuring essays by Joyce Butler, former curator of the Maine Historical Society (MHS); Richard D'Abate, Executive Director of MHS; and Laura Sprague, restoration curator of the Wadsworth-Longfellow House.
