Description


This book is a facsimile reprint and may contain imperfections such as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages. 1915. And a biographical note by Margaret Lavington. A collection of verse from the English poet, who at the outbreak of World War I joined the Royal Naval Division, served at Antwerp, and was in the Dardanelles expedition when he died of blood poisoning at the island of Skiros. Handsome and athletic, Brooke was also charming, intellectual, and witty, and was universally sought in society. His early fame and tragic death have made him an almost legendary figure and he is remembered as the War Poet.
