Bringing together over 100 years of creative and vital American poetry in one volume, Anthology of Modern American Poetry includes over 750 poems by 161 American poets ranging from Walt Whitman to Sherman Alexie. It represents not only the traditionally familiar poetic works of the last hundred years but also includes numerous poems by women, minority, and progressive writers only rediscovered in the past two decades. It is also the first anthology to give full treatment to American long poems and poetic sequences.

Excerpt from An Anthology of Modern English Prose Monday Morning Yesterday we set out, attended by John, Abraham, Benjamin, and Isaac, in new and fine liveries, in the best carriage, which had been cleaned, lined, and new harnessed, so that it looked like a quite new one; but I had no arms to quarter with my dear lord and masters; though he jocularly, upon my noticing my obscurity, said that he had a good mind to have the olive-branch quartered for mine. I was dressed in the suit of white, flowered with silver, a rich head-dress, and the diamond necklace and earrings I mentioned before; and my dear sir in a fine laced silk waistcoat of blue Paduasoy, and his coat a pearl-coloured fine cloth, with gold buttons and button-holes, and lined with white silk. I said I was too fine, and would have laid aside some of the jewels; but he said it would be thought a slight to me from him, as his wife; and though I apprehended that people might talk as it was, yet he had rather they should say anything than that I was not put upon an equal footing as his wife with any lady he might have married. It seems, the neighbouring gentry had expected us, and there was a great congregation; for (against my wish) we were a little late; so that, as we walked up the church to his seat, we had many gazers and whisperers; but my dear master behaved with so intrepid an air, and was so cheerful and complaisant to me, that he did credit to his kind choice, instead of showing as if he was ashamed of it; and I was resolved to busy my mind entirely with the duties of the day; my intentness on the occasion, and my thankfulness to God for His unspeakable mercies to me, so took up my thoughts I was much less concerned than I should otherwise have been, at the gazings and whisperings of the congregation, whose eyes were all turned to our seat.

This is a unique anthology. Drawing on the full range of English prose, wherever it has been written, it illustrates the growth, development, and resources of the language from the legends of Sir Thomas Malory to the novels of Kashuo Ishiguro. In the process it reveals a variety ofachievements which no other language can match. The book represents an enormous diversity of men and women - from John Bunyan to John Updike, from Brendan Behan to Chinua Achebe, from Dorothy Wordsworth to Patrick White. As the centuries progress, American writers increase their presence, and by the twentieth century there are contributions fromIndia, Australia, Canada, Nigeria, the Caribbean and many other parts of the world. The selection is no less remarkable for its breadth in terms of subject-matter and treatment. Fiction is generously represented, but many other kinds of writing have also been drawn on: letters, diaries, and memoirs; history and philosophy; criticism and reportage; sermons and satire; travel-books;reflections on art, science, politics and sport. There are classic and well-loved passages, and also a great deal that is unfamiliar. John Gross has chosen with consummate skill to produce a volume that is both a testimonial to English prose and an endless source of pleasurable browsing.
