"Ezra Pound is the most controversial literary figure of our time. The man who edited the work of Yeats and T.S. Eliot was also tried for treason and sent to an insane asylum. Here for the first time Mullins presents the case for Ezra Pound documenting the tremendous contribution he made to contemporary American culture in a witty and biting criticism of our society which gives lip service to poetry while imprisoning its major poet. Contains excerpts from the controversial broadcasts Pound made from Italy during WWII. The chief complaint against him seems to have been that he refused to take part in the slaughter of the war. While so many millions were dipping their hands in blood he asked only for peace." - dust jacket.
