. L. (Katharine Lee) Bates is a collection of poetry that explores various themes such as love, nature, faith, and social issues. The title Jetsam refers to the items that are thrown overboard from a ship during a storm, and the poems in this collection are like these discarded items, fragments of the author's thoughts and experiences that have been cast adrift. The collection includes over 50 poems, each with its own unique style and subject matter. Some poems are romantic and lyrical, while others are more contemplative and introspective. Bates also addresses social issues of her time, such as poverty, injustice, and the struggle for women's rights. Bates is known for her use of vivid imagery and descriptive language, and this is evident throughout the collection. She often draws on nature and the natural world as a source of inspiration, and her poems are filled with references to the seasons, animals, and landscapes. Overall, Jetsam: Occasional Verses is a rich and varied collection of poetry that showcases the talent and versatility of K. L. Bates as a writer. It is a timeless work that continues to be celebrated for its beauty and depth of meaning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
