description: from the book jacket:The Poetry of Robert Frost brings together for the first time the full contents of all eleven of Frost's individual books of verse, from A Boy's Will through In the Clearing.Robert Frost has long been recognized as one of America's greatest poets. Besides occupying a central and commanding position in American letters, he is one of the few poets whose work is widely read.More than 350 poems comprise this new volume, scrupulously prepared under the editorship of Edward Connery Lathem, a Frost scholar, Librarian of Dartmouth College, and friend of the poet.Mr. Lathem, in his notes, records extensive bibliographical information about the publication of Robert Frost's poetry during nearly three-quarters of a century--from 1894, when his first poem appeared in a publication of national circulation, to the final volume the poet worked on just before his death. The editor also carefully traces textual changes that have occurred in the poetry over the years.This handsome volume, the standard edition of Frost's poetry, is a lasting tribute to America's best-loved poet.
