This volume contains selected works from several poets that are available in the public domain. All the poets have some connection to the city of Baltimore, Maryland, which was the primary reason for thieeir inclusion. The most famous of these poets are, of course, Edgar Allan Poe, who is, perhaps most famous for his macabre wrtings, but whose poetry is still valued today, Emily Dickinson, who is still studied in nearly all college English programs, Francis Scott Key, who wrote the Star-Spangled Banner and was a well-known poet at the time, and Ogden Nash, whose poetry is often unfairly described as doggeral. Much of their work is still influential.
