The scope of his literary achievements and the dramatic character of Poe's life have drawn readers and critics to him in droves. And yet, upon his death, one obituary penned by a literary enemy in the New York Daily Tribune cascaded into a lasting stain on Poe's character, leaving a historic misunderstanding. Many remember Poe as a difficult, self-pitying, troubled drunkard often incapable of caring for himself. Poe reclaims the Willie Morris books in memoir and biography.Authors, American19th centuryBiographyCriticsUnited StatesBiographyAuthors, AmericanCritics818/.309Hutchisson James M1634615MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910810109203321Poe4072228UNINA
