Poetry to carry in a coat pocket and read on a walk: songs, ballads, and country verse chosen by Edward Thomas for people who wanted their reading out of doors.

First published in 1907, The Pocket Book of Poems and Songs for the Open Air is an anthology rather than a gathering of Thomas's own work. He was then a hard-pressed literary critic and prose writer in his late twenties, and he chose for company rather than for the classroom, setting old songs and ballads beside living writers: A. E. Housman, W. H. Davies, John Masefield, Alfred Noyes, Walter de la Mare, T. Sturge Moore, and W. B. Yeats.
