<p>Ezra Pound was undoubtedly one of the most influential and controversial figures in twentieth century poetry. His brilliant yet obscure encyclopedic epic poem Cantos explored the history of civilization, his hatred for war and his disappointments in man's imperfection. This limited edition has been designed by the LaNana Press' printer, Charles Jones, and it reflects the style and generosity of materials and processes that were the hall mark of private press publishing in 1920s and 30s. The book has a large page format (318 x 241mm) with the text set in type faces designed by Eric Gill: Gill Sans light and Joanna. Charles Jones has printed 200 copies on a Vandercook Universal III press, on Magnani Biblios mould made white wove paper. The edition is hand bound in Harmatan's tan leather with Japanese bookcloth overboards and slipcased.Each copy of the book is numbered and signed by Omar Pound and Charles Jones.</p>
