Autor

Samuel G. Goodrich, known in the literary world by his pseudonym Peter Parley, was a prolific 19th-century American author, best remembered for his contributions to children's literature. Reconnoitering the interplay between factual exposition and entertaining storytelling, Goodrich was born on August 19, 1793, in Ridgefield, Connecticut. Not merely a writer but an advocate of education, he aimed to instil a love for learning in young minds through his imaginative narratives which often amalgamated moral lessons with historical and geographical facts. His work, 'Poems' is a testament to his versatility, showcasing his ability to weave the written word into evocative and thoughtful verse. Beyond his poetry, Goodrich's legacy comprises over a hundred books, which include his 'Tales' series, 'Peter Parley's Annual,' and various geographies and histories rendered accessible for the youth. His literary style was innovative for his time, marrying informative content with a storytelling approach designed to engage children — which proved revolutionary in the field of educational literature. Goodrich's influence extended to his editorship roles and his social engagement, where he underscored the moral responsibility of authorship. He passed away on May 9, 1860, leaving behind a body of work that not only educated but also shaped the American youth's perception of their burgeoning country and wider world.
