Excerpt from Selections From the Southern Poets
Poe did not find his duties as cadet at all pleasant. He was reserved in disposition and made few friends. The routine of military school life became more and more distasteful to him, until at length he deliberately brought about his expulsion by neglect Of such duties as roll call and guard duty. He was twenty-two years of age when, March, 1831, he left West Point. Before leaving the Academy he had secured subscriptions from his fellow-cadets for a volume of his poetry. This, the third volume to be issued, was a revision of his earlier volumes, was entitled Poems, and was dedicated to his fellow-students Of West Point.

Excerpt from Selections From the Southern Poets
This book is intended primarily to meet the recommendation of the Georgia Teachers' Association that applicants for admission into the Freshman Class of Georgia colleges be examined on selections from Southern poets.
Yet the anthology is not compiled in a sectional spirit; for limited as was the literary expression of the old South, it has not, as a rule, had adequate attention ; and it is believed that there will be a demand for such a book wherever there is desire to study American literature.
To several publishers I owe a debt of thanks for their generous permission to use works of which they own the copyright.
