Works:
Works by William Davis Gallagher |
| 1835 | Erato. Three warmly received collections of verse, two published in 1835 and the last in 1837, that are noteworthy for their descriptions of life and nature in the West. Ralph Leslie Rusk, author of The Literature of the Middle Western Frontier (1925), said the collections hold "almost, if not quite, the best verses written on the frontier." |
| 1841 | Selections from the Poetical Literature of the West. One of the earliest regional anthologies is edited by Gallagher and contains work by thirty-eight western poets, including Gallagher's own much-celebrated poem "Miami Woods." |
