Title: why is this out of print???
Review: I recently bought this book for my wife and had a terrible time finding it (and it was very expensive). She has loved John Masefield for who knows how long (since she was a child) and has shared favorite poems with me from this book. I have also read some of them and they are wonderful poetry and imaginitive enough for all aged readers and some powerful and beautiful enough to bring tears to myself. Highly recommended for anyone who loves the sea. I was lucky enough to find a nice hardcover with paintings that capture some of the sensations of the sea. Poems like "Sea Fever" are classics that frequently printed elsewhere (and quoted in a Star Trek movie :)), and it should be reprinted and made available in the United States where publishers seem unable to identify what American readers are intelligent enough to comprehend. Get this from the library if you do not feel like the investment.
