A President's odyssey Book

It doesn't look cool. The title is not sexy. Some may not even think John Drury "sexy." And the publisher is -- ahem -- Writer's Digest Books. Don't be fooled. And this book is THE BOMB. For everybody from high school students to college students to practicing poets, Drury gives you thorough definitions and examples for all things poetry. He's never condescending, so don't think you're too grown for the Drury's PD: he'll throw that Greek mess at you. But he's also practical and NOT a purist. Yes, you get the Persian ghazal in its true form, but you also get the bastardized versions. Even some bastard Sapphics.
