Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Robert Thomas Moore" in English language version.
Robert Thomas Moore was an exceptional amalgam of the poet, the scientist, and the man of affairs. ...over a number of years he set aside sums of money to be devoted to some project for the furtherance of creative literature. In 1947 he judged that the accumulation was adequate for his plans, and therefore he organized the Borestone Mountain Poetry Awards (named for his beautiful summer home in Maine), devoted to the recognition of the best poetry being currently written in the English language. The series of annual volumes, which he supervised as editor-in-chief, and the generous prizes awarded to separate poems and to books of verse, won him international acclaim as a discriminating patron of modem poetry, and undoubtedly provided the deepest gratification of his later years.
