520			_a"The Hundred Best English Poems" by Adam L. Gowans is a collection of classic poetry compiled in the early 20th century. The work aims to curate a selection of well-regarded English poems, showcasing a variety of notable authors and styles through time. This anthology is not merely a collection of poems but a statement of felt admiration for the chosen works, as demonstrated by the detailed selections and annotations. At the start of this collection, the author expresses both the ambition and challenge of selecting the "best" poems, admitting the subjective nature of such choices. He notes that while the title may suggest a definitive list, his earnestness in curation reflects his respect for each poem's quality and resonance. Providing not just a catalog of poets and their works, Gowans establishes a personal connection to the verses, advocating for their significance and advocating that they should be cherished by lovers of literature. The opening section also highlights the meticulous care taken to preserve the integrity of the original texts while modernizing some spelling, inviting curiosity about the poetic treasures that follow.
