They represent a short list of some seventy poems selected in the course of their adjudication by the panel of judges for the Guinness Poetry Awards, from all verse published for the first time in the British Isles between 1st July, 1958, and 30th June, 1959. Submissions were not made by the poets themselves either for the Awards or for the Anthology. The poems published are, thus, in no sense chosen by our contributors as being in their opinion the most important that they had published during the year and, as in previous years, no more than a single work has been taken by our judges from any particular poet.' (Quote taken from Lord Moyne's Foreword to Volume 3) ***First and only printings of the the first four volumes of this anthology of poetry, each volume complete in its original dustwrapper, and each in very good condition, albeit with the aforementioned faults. Includes work by a interesting range of post-war poets. Uncommon in the dustwrappers. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
