The Lamont Prize is given for a 2nd volume of poetry. There may have been a first, in which case there is no real record of it anymore (short of inquiring of Booth, of course).EAS23:24, 24 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
It turns out that the Lamont Poetry Prize was originally given for a first volume, and switched about 1970 to honoring the 2nd volume. Letter from a Distant Land was indeed Booth's first volume. Easchiff (talk) 17:14, 28 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
