Congratulations, Tony! It is an excellent book, one of the most interesting uses of archival material and different voices that I have seen. What sets it apart from most collections of war poems is the widely different perspectives and forms included in it.

Tony,
Big congratulations! Best award out there, IMO. How great it must feel to have such recognition from peers.
Meanwhile, I note that formalists and semi-formalists have done well with it over the years, and Eratosphereans and semi-Eratosphereans have dome pretty well with it too.
Anyway, congrats Tony -- well-desrved.

Congratulations, Tony. I agree the Poets' Prize is one of the best and most meaningful awards out there. I haven't read the book yet but I have no doubt it's a great choice.
