Anthology of Magazine Verse for 1922 and Yearbook of American Poetry.


First edition. This year’s anthology, once again edited by the African-American poet and critic William Stanley Braithwaite, features contributions from Claude McKay, Wallace Stevens, E. E. Cummings, Hart Crane, Max Eastman, Vachel Lindsay, and others. As noted in Blockson 101, “Braithwaite’s perceptive and extraordinary instinctive gift of discovering the poetic genius has no doubt earned him the title of ‘Afro-American Anthologist of the Twentieth Century.’”
