Collins Albatross Book of Verse

A wonderful treasury of English and American poetry spanning seven centuries, the Collins Albatross Book of Verse brings together the best of the poetic tradition from the thirteenth century right through to the twentieth. Edited by the celebrated American anthologist Louis Untermeyer, this revised and enlarged edition is a generous and thoughtfully curated collection, equally at home as a reference for the poetry lover and a pleasure to dip into at random.

Published by Collins of London and Glasgow, this is a handsome volume that makes a lovely gift for anyone with a love of poetry. It comes complete with its original slipcase, a pleasing extra for a book of this kind.
