WAR POETS: AN ANTHOLOGY (HB) (NEW)

Reissued in a larger format with a new cover, this evocative collection features 80 poems from the First World War, by 24 poets including Wilfred Owen, Siegfried Sassoon, Isaac Rosenberg, Edward Thomas and Rupert Brooke. Also featured are less famous poets such as Leslie Coulson, the American poet Alan Seeger, and Charles Sorley, whom Poet Laureate John Masefield considered the greatest loss of all the poets during the war. Themes range from the futility and horror of the war to lighter moments of beauty and camaraderie.
