Review
An important addition to collections of twentieth-century American poetry.
(Booklist)This is a historical compilation of poems that from opening to closing exemplifies this significant black American poet's interest in his own early 20th-century times. Cotter mostly articulated by using a directness of details and unforced rhyme. Witness these lines from 'Sonnet to Negro Soldiers': 'They shall go down unto Life's Borderland,/ Walk unafraid within that Living Hell,/ Nor heed the driving rain of shot and shell/ That 'round them falls; but with uplifted hand . . . /'. The reader sees the sensibility of the poet sharpen with each poem. Highly recommended.

Store description
3,000 sq ft 35,000 + books mostly out of print, rare, many foreign language. especially strong in NATIVE AMERICA, WESTERN AMERICANA,SCIENCE, TECHNICAL,ART. Been here 30+. No international orders please too many scammers (Australians) and constantly changing rules and people in Germany complaining and adding weird new hoops (Extended Producer Responsibility) to jump through. Every country wants it's own tax form and tax ID and and VAT Number and IOSS ID or countless other acronyms that change weeksly and it's not worth it for us sorry.…
