This article focuses on several books about poems. Some of them are as follows: "Golden Falcon," by Robert P. Tristram Coffin, "A Cedar Box," by Robert Nathan, "Along Old Trails," by William Haskell Simpson, "Poems From the Ranges," by Charles Erskine Scott Wood and "Thalia," by John Finley. William Haskell Simpson has discovered "Along Old Trails" the natural religion and intense coloring of the Pueblo Indians. His poems have been influenced by Pueblo lore and by Mexican melancholy. Both have childishly direct expression. And the chief virtue of Simpson's work is that he keeps just this childish directness in his poems.
