Samuel Taylor Coleridge: The Great Poets

One of the most memorable events in my childhood was when someone, I don't remember who, got me a copy of Robert Lewis Stevenson's "A Child's Garden of Verses. I can't say that it made me a lover of poetry, because I recall years when I was actually annoyed when something I had to read, such as Shakespeare's plays, was in verse. I got over that quickly, when I realized the riches which could be found in those iambic pentameters.But Stevenson is not a "great" poet. Coleridge, on the other hand is one of England's greatest poets, perhaps second or third among the five great English romantic poets, including Wordsworth, Shelley, Byron, and Keats. If I had children, this is what I would read to them. It is part of a series, covering several poets in English. Check them out.

A limited number of poems in this small addition. May be suitable for students focusing upon a limited number of poems.

A beautiful copy and truly exceptional customer service! I'm delighted with my purchase and would strongly recommend Salt Creek First Editions to anyone! It's very refreshing to find a seller with such high standards for integrity and quality!
