Summary:

This anthology commemorates the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Pitt Poetry Series(1968-1993), which from modest beginnings has become one of the most prominent poetry series in the United States. During this period, first under the editorship of Paul Zimmer, and then Ed Ochester, 156 books by 102 poets were published. This collection provides generous selections-about three hundred lines of verse-of the forty-five poets currently in print in the series, as well as full-page photographs.
