In POETRY ON THE SIDE OF NATURE, poet and teacher Thomas R. Smith aims to inspire and equip poets at all levels of experience to employ the nature poem as advocacy for the natural world. Making a case for what has been defined as the Western nature poem as an act of survival and protest, Smith enlists 30 poets, new and old, familiar and unfamiliar, from both sides of the Atlantic to demonstrate the many ways poets can, for readers and themselves, close the distance of alienation between human beings and the natural world. Part essay, part anthology, Poetry on the Side of Nature is for any reader or writer of poetry who passionately loves and wants to defend the Earth.
