A leader of the twentieth-century Irish nationalist movement, who eventually became one of the Free States’ senators, William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) is also the greatest poet that nation has yet produced. The present selection includes poetry from every period in life, dealing with all the topics closest to his heart: love, death, old age, ambition, the poet’s craft, and of course the history and destiny of Ireland. 253 pages.
