A worthy companion to The Oxford Book of English Verse , this anthology covers, in 571 selections, the whole range of American poetry from colonial times; more than half of it is devoted to the best work of the period from 1900 to 1950.

Brief biographical notes at the end enable the reader to know in what volume of the poet's work each poem originally appeared.
