Excerpt from Poets All"Poets All! What an absurd name!" exclaims an intending reader, hastily throwing aside the book and choosing instead another with, at first sight, a more sensible and intelligible title - which does not necessarily guarantee a more sensible or intelligible interior.And why not Poets All, I should like to ask? Surely if Horace, before the stylus was superseded by the gold pen, and the waxen tablets by foolscap - ill-omened word! - could assert (perhaps with a little of his poetical licence) that every one, learned or ignorant, was writing poetry, the remark must have far more truth in our own time.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
