"SPANNING OVER 300 YEARS of our history, Poems for America is nothing less than a compendium of the American experience in verse. If you want to hear the full chorus of America singing, make this distinguished anthology a part of your library."

--Billy Collins, author of Sailing Alone Around the Room

内容推荐

An inspiring anthology that celebrates our nation with more than one hundred of the greatest poems ever written about the landscapes, institutions, and transforming events of America.

This remarkable volume commemorates our country’s struggles and triumphs with poems chronicling the American experience in all its vastness, from the late seventeenth century through the present day. Alongside poems about New York, Florida, and California are descriptions of railroads, amusement parks, hotels, and road trips; scenes of rural and western life; vivid descriptions of our grandest cities; and poems that illuminate the complexity of the most shameful chapters in U.S. history, such as slavery and the oppression of Native Americans. Taken together, these poems--whether voices of celebration or dissent--honor the astonishing and enduring spirit of our nation.
