  • Wonderful collection

    I was hesitant about making this purchase. This title seemed a bit out of place in the Everyman's Pocket Poet series. But after receiving the book I am certainly glad I mad the purchase. Perhaps EM could follow up with more books in their poetry series dedicated to song lyrics and their song writers. Would love a book like this covering Paul Simon for example. And a final note. These are wonderfully produced hardback books that will last a lifetime and beyond. Well worth this tiny price tag.
