There really isn't a lot to say about this one. Samuel French Morse and a few of his colleagues pull together the known primary writings of the 20th-century American poet Wallace Stevens (one of my early favorites). It has a comprehensive listing of every book, every anthology contribution, and every poem he published in various periodicals. The checklist is actually a very good way to tell if the book you own is a first or second edition, and has near-perfect descriptions of the show more decorations, bindings, and page counts. The only two audiences that I can think of for this book are rare book collectors or Stevens scholars. show less
