Description
Joggin’ Erlong was the final collection of Dunbar’s poetry published during his lifetime. His health continued to decline after his diagnosis with tuberculosis. Separated from his wife in 1902, Dunbar eventually returned home to Dayton to live with his mother, Matilda. Much of his later work between 1902-1906 reflects his increasingly ill health.
