“No other index or bibliography reaches American and British Poetry’s level of comprehensiveness. … An outstanding anthology!”
Wisconsin Bookwatch
This reference volume is a supplement to Alexander’s earlier work covering the years 1928–1978. Its purpose is to provide access to articles, parts of articles, and parts of books of criticism on British and American poets. No other index or bibliography reaches this level of comprehensiveness. The focus is on journals and books that are widely held by academic libraries. Arrangement is alphabetical by poet’s name and then by the title of the poem. In some cases, more general articles, including interviews, are included under the heading General. American and British Poetry guides the interested reader to articles and books discussing the meaning and nature of particular poems.
