About the book

Companion to the PBS television series. Uses the works of thirteen poets to trace the development of an American poetic identity over the past two centuries.

First sentence: Americans had at first to invent American art out of the Augustan culture of England--of all cultures the most rational and refined, the least like the sublime barbarousness supposed natural to early America.
