Reviews"Of all the poetry written in our generation, Frost's is most likely to stand the test of time." --Lewis Gannett "Of U.S. poets, none has lodged poems more surely where they will be hard to get rid of. . . . His lines often have the trenchancy and inevitability of folk sayings." -- Time "No other American poet has so much art or so much subject matter." --Mark Van Doren "Frost was the first American who could be honestly reckoned a master-poet by world standards." --Robert Graves, Of U.S. poets, none has lodged poems more surely where they will be hard to get rid of. . . .

SynopsisThis is the only comprehensive volume of Robert Frost's published verse; in it are the contents of all eleven of his individual books of poetry-from A Boy's Will (1913) to In the Clearing (1962). The editor, Edward Connery Lathem, has scrupulously annotated the more than 350 poems in this book.
one of the greats, I love getting a book in my hands and reading. But most of all is the satisfaction I get of physical possession of a BOOK not an EBOOK. Both are able to be lost but physical control is what seems best for me... I have read at least 60 books this year alone. And I have a good collection of BOOKS in my hand!
