One Hundred and One Famous PoemsAugust 28, 2008 This is a wonderful collection of poems. IT is a national treasure. I had this book and lost it, thinking that by now it was out of print. I love the variety of authors and the variety of each author's poems.

Great poems.June 2, 2008 My Mother read these poems to us as we were growing up. I also memorized many of these poems at school. Reading it again was like visiting an old and familar friend.

As a child my mother read from this book to me and to my father. She need not have read much as she memorized many of the poems and can recite them now, though well past her 90th year. I have given this book to many of my friends and consider it a gift of love and inspiration.

This is by far the best collection of general heritage poetry I have come across. Classics when originally compiled that are still the standards for Americana poetry as well as a summation of our cultural history.
