This paperbound volume of Selected Poems 1930-1965 represents work chosen from all of Richard Eberhart's earlier volumes, from A Bravery of Earth (1930) to The Quarry (1964), together with some previously unpublished poems. It is an impressive collection, emphasizing anew that Eberhart is one of the most important poets of our time and one destined for a permanent place in our literature. Here the contemplative and lyrical elements of poetry are beautifully blended; the poet is both singer and philosopher. Man and nature, never divisible, are his chief themes, to which he brings a metrical subtlety and a power of phrase and image which are uniquely his own.
