This collection of one hundred and one famous poems is drawn from
centuries of literature - it is a perfect introduction to the
beautiful craft of poetry. Included in this embracing and superb
anthology of classic poems are works by authors as diverse as
William Shakespeare, Edgar Allan Poe, Lord Byron, John Whittier and
so many more. Their contrasting styles, reflecting the versatility
and evolution of the English language, make this selection of their
finest works a well-rounded and evocative example of the poetic
craft. This collection's subjects range from romantic sonnets to
musings on nature, to soliloquys and hymnals. Poems concerning
specific events, particularly the furious melee of battles, also
feature. A few notable poems refer to the history of the United
States, with Native Americans as their theme. Although diffuse and
without focus other than celebration of the classics, this
collection acts as a superb starting point for those wanting to
explore many of the finest masters of verse.
