The following is a quote from the "About MAPS" page:
"Just as the anthology itself is designed to win new readers for the poets included, so too is the web site designed to help draw attention to the many fine critical and historical books written about American poetry. If you enjoy the excerpts reprinted here, we urge you to read the books in their entirety. If your local library does not own them, we urge you to recommend their purchase."[top]
