Index to Poetry in Popular Periodicals, 1955-1959

This index compensates for the loss of bibliographic control that occurred when the "Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature" decided to discontinue the indexing of poetry and supplements other poetry indexes which did not cover or covered incompletely periodical poetry. The volume contains title, first-line, author, and subject indexes to poems published in forty-four popular and professional periodicals. The title entry gives complete bibliographic information about each poem and entries in the other indexes are cross-referenced by number to it.
