The article discusses the poetic career of author Herman Melville. The author states that Melville wrote nine novels in 11 years and then turned to writing poetry. Melville produced a small volume of poetry in 1860 but did not publish poetic works until 1866. His first poetry collection was called "Battle-Pieces and Aspects of the War." The author examines Melville's attitude and regression following the U.S. Civil War. The article also discusses the critical revival of Melville's poetry. Melville's travels during this time are mentioned.
