Presents the Pulitzer Prize-winning collection of the complete poems of twentieth-century American poet Carl Sandburg.

A comprehensive edition of one of America's greatest poets, this collection draws from her four published volumes, together with 50 uncollected works and translations of Octavio Paz, Max Jacob and others.

Here are 167 of Carl Sandburg's poems which are expressive of the Middle West. The editor has chosen representative poems from four volumes: Chicago poems, Cornhuskers, Smoke and steel, and Slabs of the Sunburnt West.
