The 126 poems in this superb collection of 19th- and 20th-century British and American verse range from the impassioned "Renascence" of Edna St. Vincent Millay to Edward Lear's whimsical "The Owl and the Pussycat." Famous poets such as Wordsworth, Tennyson, Whitman and Frost are well-represented, as are less well-known poets.
