Inhaltsangabe

Poems on the Underground continue to delight London's travellers. Every four months, another five poems appear in the tube carriages, chosen by the novelist Judith Chernaik and the poets Cicely Herbert and Gerard Benson. This book includes all the poems and illustrations for "100 Poems on the Underground". It is also illustrated in colour with 24 posters from the golden age of London Underground art. The posters have been selected from the London Transport Museum archives to complement the spirit of the book. In addition to their graphic imagery, they feature lines of poetry of special interest, proving that poetry had a role to play in Underground travel as many as 80 years ago. There is an extended introduction, notes on the new poems and on the posters and an index of first lines. Bound and jacketed with head and tail bands, it also has a ribbon marker.
