Poems by Robert Frost

Robert Lee Frost was born in San Francisco in 1874. When he was ten, his father died and he and his mother moved to New England. He attended school at Dartmouth and Harvard, worked in a mill, taught, and took up farming before he moved to England, where his first books of poetry, A Boy’s Will (1913) and North of Boston (1914), were published. In 1915 he returned to the United States and settled on a farm in New Hampshire. Four volumes of his poetry-New Hampshire (1923), Collected Poems (1930), A Further Range (1936), and A Witness Tree (1942)-were awarded the Pulitzer Prize. He died in 1963.
