Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962) is not only the greatest poet that California has produced, but a major poet of the 20th century who occupies a prominent place in the tradition of American prophetic poetry. This text is the final volume in the complete edition of his work.
"It is an indispensable resource and itself a study of Jeffers. Hunt brings together more poems than Jeffers put in books, presenting them chronologically (order of composition). That sheds light on choices Jeffers made as he developed as a poet."--Virginia Quarterly Review
"The commentaries in the concluding volume are precise, textually insightful, and highly useful. The section on evidence and procedures is also cause for thanks, since it will give generations of readers a handle on Jeffers's manner of composition. This volume, along with the rest of the set, is recommended for libraries serving upper-division undergraduates through faculty."--Choice
