"This is not only a great introduction to poetry AND poets but a chance to have at your fingertips some of the all-time classics and most beloved: "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe; "Casey at Bat"; "How Do I Love Thee" by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, etc.. Even though I finally finished this from cover to cover after having had it for years, I will be reading it again and again."
