I Wouldn't Have Missed It: Selected Poems of Ogden Nash represents in one distinguished volume the whole sweep of the "undisputed laureate" in his field, who was "probably the most quoted of contemporary American poets, with a larger and more appreicative audience than any other poet." This new and final collection selected by his daughters gathers together more than four hundred of his poems. It fills the needs for a single, up-to-date selection from all of Ogden Nash's previous collections, covering more than four decades of his unique observation of the human condition and his enormously satisfying poetic achievement.
