Synopsis

Robert Frost's first four published books of verse, gathered in their entirety in this volume, established his reputation as a preeminent American poet. His debut collection, A Boy's Will (1913), introduced his affinity for New England themes and his unique blend of traditional meters with colloquial language. This was followed by North of Boston (1914), where he further honed and developed his style and presented vivid dramatic monologues and narratives. This collection features the famous "Mending Wall," showcasing Frost's ability to infuse rural scenes with deeper philosophical meanings. His third book, Mountain Interval (1916), contains the iconic "The Road Not Taken," which has become one of Frost's most widely recognized poems. Frost's fourth book, New Hampshire (1923), earned him his first Pulitzer Prize and includes the beloved "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening." It secured Frost's position as one of America's most popular and acclaimed writers, accessible and engaging, subtle and sophisticated.

This Warbler Classics authoritative edition is based on Frost's final editing of the works and includes an introduction by William E. Cain, an essay on poetry in Frost's own words, a detailed biographical timeline, suggestions for further reading, and indexes of poem titles and first lines.
