A Poetry Anthology You Can Live With

This collection of poetry from Chaucer to the modern poets has been with me for twenty years and still provides inspiration. While there are many famous poems in it, the editor's intent seems to be also to show the diversity of various poets' styles, and to choose based on quality rather than popularity. My father, an avid reader of poetry, has been trying to steal my copy for a long time! Many good vocabulary notes are provided.
