Sommario/riassunto

A.J.M. Smith has described George Frederick Cameron as one of 'Canada's greatest poets,' who, with Isabella Valancy Crawford and Archibald Lampman, 'were cut off just when their work had reached maturity.' Cameron's poetry is rich in classical culture, and involves itself with political concerns, love and death.
