Poetry, June 1914

This issue of Poetry includes Ford Madox Hueffer's On Heaven, which is great.

It also has an essay by Alice Corbin Henderson about how American poetry underpins European poetry through Whitman and Poe, which is cool.

Pound then adds a lengthy essay on Hueffer, praising his precision and his love of good prose (I think this essay may have appeared already in a European journal?).

BUT the thing that I'm most excited to show you is an advertisement:


(Update: my acquaintance, Poundian Sarah Lee, informed me that this was Amy Lowell's kennel!)
