	Carleton College: George Soule: John Masefield
		Masefield's ship departs from "distant Ophir," a region in either Arabia or Africa at the southern end of the Red Sea, and is being rowed to northern end of that sea.
		(Masefield must have intended the term "Palestine" to apply to the land at farthest reach of the present Gulf of Aqaba.) The ship's goal is a happy one, for Palestine is a safe "haven," and its skies are "sunny." This boat carries a cargo of animals, birds, exotic woods, and wine.
		Masefield understood this, as he sailed in the twilight of the sailing-ship era and the dawning of the steamship era.

		John Masefield is perhaps best known as the poet laureate of England from 1930 until his death in 1967, and his long career as a minor novelist falls under the shadow of his enormously popular poetry.
		[Masefield's] chief dedication is to what he feels is the English spirit and to the interpretation to the world of that spirit, the land and the heritage from which it springs, and the men and words and deeds that it inspires.

		Masefield (1878—1967) reminds me somewhat of American poet and editor William Cullen Bryant, who died the year Masefield was born.
		Masefield's first book, Salt-Water Ballads, likewise defined his career, casting him as a sea poet in the popular imagination.  "John Who?" is unfortunately the response you get nine times out of ten (I'm being generous) when you drop the name John Masefield into a conversation with any but the most bookish American.
		Masefield's first book, for instance, the 1902 Salt-Water Ballads, supposedly became collectible and expensive because Grant Richards, in his 1934 book Author Hunting, told of a fire at the bindery warehouse that soon made the book unprocurable.

		To many, John Masefield is simply known as the poet who wrote about the sea.
		It would be far better, if it is needed to describe Masefield in very few words, to call him the poet who wrote of beauty and experience.
		It is interesting to note that although among the ‘general public’, Masefield’s poems of sea and ships are well known, the poet himself in fact spent only a very small part of his life aboard ship.
