LibriVox volunteers bring you 12 recordings of A Song Of Long Ago by James Whitcomb Riley.

This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for May 17, 2026. ------

Riley's chief legacy was his influence in fostering the creation of a Midwestern cultural identity and his contributions to the Golden Age of Indiana Literature. With other writers of his era, he helped create a caricature of Midwesterners and formed a literary community that produced works rivaling the established eastern literati. - Summary by Wikipedia
