Excerpt from A Thousand and One Gems of English and American Poetry, From Chaucer to Tennyson: Chronologically ArrangedIt is not claimed for this volume, that it contains all the gems of English and American poetry, for the num ber of specimens has been purposely limited. It may be that some verses are omitted which should have found a place here in preference to those selected. This is a matter of judgment and critical taste, in which the editor may have erred. It is claimed, however, that these selec tions are all gems, the merits of which are universally conceded. They comprise a greater number, and they present the characteristics of a greater number of authors, than in any previous compilation within the same limita tions as to style and price.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
