Biographical Sketch From the Life of M.C.M. HammondBiography | 1876 Biographical Sketch from the Life of M.C.M. Hammond is a brief
memorial pamphlet commemorating the life and service of Marcus Claudius
Marcellus Hammond, the middle brother of the Hammond family with whom Simms was

discussed; this conceit allowed Simms to use his satirical gifts to create a
humorous, yet biting, commentary on the socioeconomic ... |

The Book of My Lady: A MelangeMiscellany | Key & Biddle | 1833 While a minor work overall in
the Simms canon, The Book of My Lady: A
Melange, published in 1833 by Key & Biddle of Philadelphia, is
nevertheless an important text. Here,

The Remains of Maynard Davis Richardson with a Memoir of His LifeDocuments | O. A. Roorback | 1833 One of Simms’s most personal
works, The Remains of Maynard Davis
Richardson is an editorial project the writer undertook after his good
friend Richardson’s premature death at the age of 20 on 12 October 1832. While details about their friendship remain scarce,
it is known that Richardson accompanied Simms on the writer’s first trip to the
North,[1]
and Simms dedicated his long 1832 narrative poem Atalantis to him, referring to the younger man’s “high moral and
intellectual worth” in his dedicatory note.
The families of the two men had been long acquainted ... |
