Excerpt from Northern Numbers: Being Representative Selections From Certain Living Scottish PoetsGroup-poetry developments have been a marked feature of recent British publishing. Success has largely justified the method. It is hoped that the present volume may do for some of the leading tendencies in contemporary Scot tish poetry what the Georgian Poetry series has done for a particular group of mainly-english poets ofour period.If' this venture is sufficiently successful, subsequent volumes (which it is hoped will permit of the inclusion of poetical dramas as well) will be published at convenient intervals. No new contributor will, however, be admitted without the approval of a majority ofthe present group.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
