Jessie Rittenhouse gathered this anthology of contemporary American poetry in 1913, just before the modernist revolution took hold. It brings together lyrics and short poems by writers such as Edwin Arlington Robinson, Sara Teasdale, Edwin Markham, Josephine Preston Peabody and many others, chosen to show the range of American verse in her own day.
A fine snapshot of American poetry on the eve of modernism, for lovers of early twentieth-century verse. Download the free EPUB.
