Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poetic Old-World: A Little Book for Tourists When travelling in Europe, I have often longed for a small volume of the most famous poems associated with historic and classic localities. While it is a pleasure to read such poems at home after the journey is done, it is more of a joy to identify haunting lines and to refresh ones memory with familiar poems in the places themselves and before impressions have become dim. With this thought, I have arranged the present book in the order of a possible itinerary, which brings together poems relating to places near each other. I did not know of Miss Du Bois´s "Poems for Travelers" until "The Poetic Old-World" was practically completed. The two books, however, have only fifty poems in common, and cover ground so different that I suspect that the possessor of either will be apt to want the other. I wish gratefully to acknowledge some valuable suggestions from Mr. Henry S. Pancoast, the well-known authority on English literature and also a compiler of a volume of "Standard English Poems."
