English Poetry has two main aims as a Handbook. The first is to described and explain the technical aspects of poetry - all those daunting features in poetry's armoury from metre, form, theme and imagery to the iamb, caesura, ictus and heptameter. The second is to show how these features have earned their place in the making of poetry and the way in which different eras have applied fresh techniques to achieve the effect desired. Thus the effectiveness of poetic expression is shown to be closely linked to the appropriateness of the techniques employed, and in this way the author hopes the reader will gain not only a better understanding of the value of poetic techniques, but also a better feel for poetry as a whole.

This is one of my favorite books on the fur trade. It goes into great detail both geographically and economically on the trade. Wishart is a geographer by trade and is a professor at the University of Nebraska. For those that read these books, you know that's one of the main universities to put out fur trade histories.
The maps are a real highlight of this book. Each chapter or section has one, with clear routes, rendezvous locations, and even how long it took to go up or downriver. Really, a great resource.
I like how the strategy is laid out as well as what happened in various seasons. Lots of names and dates that are great for putting a timeline together.
This is a great resource for historians and an informative read for the general public.
