This is a great little collection of poems by various American poets. It gives a good taste of what each poet's style is like while celebrating America.

There are 26 poems from different American poets. The introduction at the front of the book tells about the different poems and how the connect to America. Sally Comport does a great job in delivering the words into pictures.
