A Treasury of Irish Verse

From Front Cover: "Ireland is a country rich and deep in literary heritage. But it is in poetry that the full breadth and depth of that heritage has been best explored. 'A Treasury of Irish Berse" captures all that is best in Irish poetry. It features poems of passion, despair, hope and beauty by a wide range of Irish poets -- James Clarence Mangan, W.B. Yeats, Louis MacNeice, Patrick Kavangh, Seamus Heaney, Paul Durcan, Padraic Colum, Samuel Ferguson, and many more! On every page, words and carefully chosen full-colour illustrations complement each other and capture the unique character of the Irish.
