This collection features an array of poems, essays, and editorial content, reflecting the cultural and societal dynamics of the time, particularly around the onset of World War I.

The opening of this edition presents a mixture of poetry by notable writers such as Witter Bynner and Amy Lowell, alongside Margaret C. Anderson’s editorial piece advocating for individualism as essential to personal and universal growth.

This edition also serves as a platform for various literary discussions, showcasing the rich tapestry of literary movements that were emerging during this transformative period.
