Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. As new, great condition. The spectacular landscapes of the San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado are graphic evidence of the violent geology that concentrated a wealth of minerals in the triangle loosely defined by the picturesque mining towns of Telluride, Silverton, and Ouray. An ancient hunting ground of indigenous peoples, these rugged high peaks concealed gold and silver discovered 150 years earlier by westerners. These discoveries spurred mining booms and engineering feats as man worked to penetrate the ore- and crystal-laden cliffs and peaks.

The collection brings together 101 well-known poems drawn primarily from British and American poets, presenting a wide range of classic English-language verse that reflects popular tastes of the early twentieth century. Many editions also feature a prose supplement that includes significant historical and inspirational documents, such as Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, the Declaration of Independence, the Ten Commandments, and Patrick Henry's "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death" speech. The anthology encompasses works by poets including William Shakespeare, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Edgar Allan Poe, Alfred Tennyson, Rudyard Kipling, Robert Frost, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, and others, with selections covering themes of inspiration, patriotism, romance, history, and reflection.Frequently indexed by title, author, and first line, the book has served as an accessible entry point to poetry for generations of readers, often appearing as a family keepsake, school text, or introduction to classic verse.Its enduring appeal lies in its presentation of familiar, memorable poems that have inspired and comforted readers across more than a century.
