About The Tower

The Tower is a book of poems by W. B. Yeats, published in 1928. The collection is viewed as one of the poet's most important, containing some of his most famous poems, such as 'Sailing to Byzantium,' 'Leda and the Swan,' and 'Among School Children.' The Tower furthered Yeats's meditations on aging, the creative process, and the nature of the physical and the spiritual world.

Identifying the First Edition of The Tower

The first edition of 'The Tower' published by Macmillan Publishers in 1928 can often be detected by its distinctive hardcover, the publisher's mark, and potentially by the print run number if available.
