This book offers a selection of 100 poems written by Eugene J McCarthy. His love for America has blessed us with political hope, and as a poet, his fine poetry provides a nourishment for our imaginations; poetry s critical role in culture. His experience as a U.S. Senator and a presidential candidate, along with other experiences are expressed well with the poems he shares here. Eugene Joseph McCarthy (March 29, 1916 December 10, 2005) was an American politician, writer, and academic from Minnesota. He served in the United States House of Representatives from 1949 to 1959 and the United States Senate from 1959 to 1971. McCarthy sought the Democratic presidential nomination in the 1968 election, challenging incumbent Lyndon B. Johnson on an anti-Vietnam War platform. McCarthy unsuccessfully ran for the Democratic Nomination for U.S. president four more times. McCarthy became a senior editor at Harcourt Brace Jovanovich Publishing and a syndicated newspaper columnist. In the 1960s he began writing poetry, and his increased political prominence led to increased interest in his work. "If any of you are secret poets, the best way to break into print is to run for the presidency", he wrote in 1968. He published a collection of poetry in 1997, Cool Reflections: Poetry For The Who, What, When, Where and Especially Why of It All. McCarthy was a senator representing Minnesota in 1968 when he was the lonely man speaking out against the war in Vietnam, walking in the opposite direction of those who supported the war. The senator changed the course of American history by being the first to challenge President Lyndon Johnson to end the war, and when McCarthy announced he would run for president, thousands of young people got "clean for Gene" and volunteered in his campaign. McCarthy's opposition to the war is well documented, but many don't know that he was also a serious and published author and poet, a form he began to work in during the 1960s. He wrote 21 books, including some on American history, economics and politics as well as a children's book and five books of poetry, of which one of the best known is "Selected Poems" (Lone Oak Press, 1997). Former U.S. poet laureate and Pulitzer Prize-winner Robert Lowell called McCarthy "A One-man Greek Chorus." Poet and professor Daniel Tobin said of McCarthy, "He practiced the art of poetry consistently. He wrote a lot of poems. You could tell by the constant voice in the poems that he was serious about the art." Even before McCarthy ran for president, he was among a handful of Minnesota poets, including Robert Bly, Tom McGrath and Michael Dennis Browne, who read at anti-war rallies. "Poetry was very much a part of Gene McCarthy," says Mary Beth McCarthy Yarrow, McCarthy's niece and goddaughter, who is making a film about her uncle. Yarrow recalls when McCarthy died in 2005, his son Michael said during his eulogy, "People say that my father was a politician who made his way to poetry. I think he was a poet who made his way to politics.". …
