.
He edited the See also:Sheffield See also:Iris for more than See also:thirty years

.
His Wanderer of See also:Switzerland (18o6), describing the See also:French occupation, attracted considerable See also:attention
.
The author was described by See also:Lord See also:Byron in a footnote to See also:English Bards and Scotch Reviewers, as " a See also:man of considerable See also:genius," whose Wanderer of Switzer-See also:land was See also:worth a thousand " Lyrical See also:Ballads." The See also:book had been mercilessly ridiculed by See also:Jeffrey in the See also:Edinburgh See also:Review (1807), but in spite of this See also:Montgomery achieved a wide popularity with his later volumes of See also:verse: The,See also:West Indies (181o); The See also:World Before the See also:Flood (1812); See also:Greenland (1819); Songs of See also:Zion (1822); The See also:Pelican See also:Island (1826)
.

.
His verses were dictated by the inspiring force of humanitarian sentiment, and he was especially eloquent in his denunciation of the slave See also:trade
