The Best Known Works of Edgar Allan Poe, in One Volume

Excerpt from The Best Known Works of Edgar Allan Poe, in One Volume: Poems, Tales, Essays, Criticisms With New Notes In February, 1831, he went to New York. He was penniless, illy clad, and nearly died of a cold complicated by internal ear trouble, after reaching the city. Forced to eat humble pie he again appealed to his guardian, but in vain. He remained in New York long enough to see his third volume off the press. It was entitled Poems, Second Edition, and contained a preface addressed to Dear a person unknown, in which some of the young author's critical opinions, largely taken from Coleridge, were first set forth.
