101 Famous Poems

Rating:
Summary: Solid old standard
Review: This book was given to me by a Mrs. Jacobs in l933 at the Irene Kaufman Settlement in Pittsburgh, Pa.when I was ll years old. I am now 77 years and this little treasure has followed me everywhere my husband and I have been, during his in the service and since. Many of the poems I have have had to memorize in school, and I did it with pleasure. Started writing poetry at a very early age, and perhaps Mrs. Jacobs recognized that in me. I will always be grateful for that lovely woman's delightful intervention in my life. I have three daughters, five grandaughters, and one grandson, and they will each have a copy of this book, but not mine, while I live. Mine is dog eared and patched, and a most valuable possession.
