“Mr. Stephen Phillips is one of not more than three or four living poets of whom the student of English literature finds himself compelled, in the interest of his study, to take account.”—Montgomery Schuyler, inThe New York Times.
The first volume contains his lyrics up to the present time; the second includes all of his five dramas in verse; The Countess Cathleen; The Land of Heart’s Desire; The King’s Threshold; On Baile’s Strand; and The Shadowy Waters.
“Mr. Yeats is probably the most important as well as the most widely known of the men concerned directly in the so-called Celtic renaissance. More than this, he stands among the few men to be reckoned with in modern poetry.”—New York Herald.
“Fundamentally lyrical in free play of imagination, frankness of creation, passionate devotion, and exaltation of sacrifice.”—The Outlook.
