- Summary
- Twenty of Frost's best poems have been chosen for this special book. Favorites such as "After Apple-Picking," "Birches," and "In Time of Cloud Burst" - mixed with poems not yet fully appreciated for their force and beauty - are complemented by B. A. King's eloquent and spare black-and-white images. These photographs evoke Frost's New England with their stone walls, stark farmhouses, snowy woods, and the simple poetry of a windswept tree.
