The New American Poetry 1945–1960

The New American Poetry 1945–1960 is a poetry anthology edited by Donald Allen and published in 1960. It aimed to highlight a "third generation" of American poets, and included numerous works culled from the little magazines of the 1950s.

As "one of the first countercultural collections of American verse", the book enjoyed robust sales for a poetry anthology. When it was reissued in 1999, the publisher stated that more than 100,000 copies had been sold.
