Description
Early Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Uncommon
A lovely and smart copy of this rare work with a charming inscription from David Loveday, gifting this copy to Academy-award winning English Actor and filmmaker Sir Michael Scudamore Redgrave.
The second edition, published the year after the first.
Bound in the publisher's original maroon cloth.
A collection of poetry from noted war poet and soldier, Wilfred Owen. As exemplified in this collection, Owen's poignant anti-war poetry powerfully captured the horrific nature of the trenches, remaining popular and celebrated works to this day.
This collection was published two years after Owen died in action, in 1918, just a week before the war's end. With an introduction from Owen's mentor and friend, Siegfried Sassoon.
Containing twenty-four poems, including 'Strange Meeting', 'Mental Cases', 'Anthem for Doomed Youth', 'Exposure' and many others.
