Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Evangeline" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is an epic poem published in 1847. The work tells the story of Evangeline Bellefontaine, an Acadian girl separated from her beloved Gabriel during the British expulsion of the Acadians in 1755. The poem follows her years-long journey across America searching for her lost love. Written in dactylic hexameter and inspired by a true story, it became Longfellow's most famous work and powerfully shaped Acadian history and identity for generations.
