I love the "old-fashioned" poetry, like Longfellow, Byron, Poe even, but modern poetry isn't for me.
Besides, a well-chosen collection ( )

A decent collection of poetry based on the theme of travel on the open road, by sea, by rail, or other method. It also includes poems on coming back home. I rather enjoyed about 50 out of the 80 poems. I also learned of a few new posts to try out. I use this book as a quick poetry break to whatever longer book I was reading at the time. In this case, that would have been George Elliot's Middlenarch. ( )

It's been so long since I read this one that I can't recall its details. ( )

Nice collection of travel/adventure-related poetry! Although Whitman comes up as the author of this book, there are numerous poets included in this book. Enjoyed it. ( )
