A Book of Irish Verse by W.B. Yeats

vanjr's review against another edition

3.0

This was a very good book of poetry. It says WB Yeats on the cover, but from what I can tell he must have edited it because not a single poem in the book has Yeats in the by line. The majority have other authors (some poems are listed "from the Irish" so maybe Yeats translated them?). I read this part before going to Ireland for the first time and part after coming home. It certainly was appreciated more after I had been there. I am not a poetry person, but this was a fun read.
