Frost’s Fame in England Let To His Meteoric Rise in The United States

A fact that it's ironic that Frost had to travel to England to gain acceptance in the US. Thanks in large part to the efforts of poet Amy Lowell, his fame was able to cross the Atlantic and return to his native country. She came across Frost's book while visiting England and was very taken by it. She prepared her evaluation and looked for publishers who would publish Robert Frost's work after she got back to the US.

One of the interesting facts about Robert Frost is that he and his family, who were unaware of the fact that he was starting to gain notoriety, sailed back to the US at the onset of the First World War. Following the publication of Lowell's essay about his work in “The New Republic” Henry Holt released “North of Boston” and “A Boy's Will” in the US. His poetry were suddenly in high demand from The Atlantic, which had previously rejected his earlier submissions. Frost was now being honored in his native country at this point.
