About This Item
From the back jacket flap: "Great poetry transcends the boundaries of places, time, gender and race. Although there was no intention to be representative, half the poems were written by Americans and half by English, Welsh, Scottish and Canadian poets. There are, too, translations from Middle English, Sanskrit, Russian, and Japanese. And this anthology is modern: a third of the poems were written in the last fifty years and a third were written between 1900 and 1945."

After closing my most recent bookstore in White Rock, B.C., I have decided to sell strictly online for the foreseeable future. My inventory is heavy on
children's and other illustrated books, along with aviation, sea and naval and other categories. I'm still plugging along after 42 years of book-selling.
