✦ Synopsis

Here is a collection of the poetry that America loves best. These are the poems that people ask for again and again—the old familiar favorites, known and loved since childhood, along with the newer selections that have won a place in the hearts of readers. These poems have something to say to us all, as, by common consent, each one has expressed a thought or crystallized an emotion with, a deeper and more enduring understanding. They all center on the great and universal things of life—Love, Home and Childhood, Faith and Immortality, Love of Country, Nature, and, since it too is a deeply human thing, Humor. The poems in this book are therefore arranged according to these classifications. The final chapter is devoted to the best-known old favorite story poems.
To facilitate the reader's finding the desired poem, an index of first lines is included. Within the sections, the poems are arranged alphabetically according to the author's last name. Links to the poems are provided.
