About this listen

Walt Whitman said, "...poetry is the voice of the nation, expressing its deepest concerns, ambitions and longings," which is certainly true of the great classic poetry of America. This wide-ranging anthology, from the earliest poets of the 16th century to the present day, reflects the changing preoccupations and visions of Americans, including Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, E.E. Cummings, and more. Enjoy 60 poems from leading classic figures as well as popular anonymous works such as Frankie and Johnny, which are an integral part of American consciousness.©2000 NAXOS AudioBooks Ltd., All Rights Reserved (P)2000 NAXOS AudioBooks Ltd., All Rights Reserved Ancient, Classical & Medieval Literature Classics World Literature Classic Poetry
