James Alexander Tucker

James Alexander Tucker (1872-1903) was a Canadian poet.

Life
Few of the details of Tucker's life are readily available. His one book of Poems was published posthumously, in 1904.

Published poet Arthur Stringer considered Tucker a friend, and wrote a Memoir that was included in Poems. Stringer tells us that Tucker was writing an unfinished monody called A Heart's Desire; and that he had "contributed to certain magazines and papers a large amount of verse of so high an order as to justify the expectation that later something more worthy would be given to the world."
