The quality shared by the seven major poets - Thomas Hardy, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Rudyard Kipling, A.E. Housman, Edward Thomas, Wilfred Owen and Philip Larkin - whose work is appraised in this original and comprehensive study is their Englishness. Each was at the same time a traditionalist and an innovator, and part of John Whitehead's purpose has been to examine their indebtedness to previous writers. Sufficient biographical detail is given to set the poetry in its social and historical context. Written also as acts of homage, the essays by paying close attention to the language used by these poets encourage in the reader the habit of teasing out of each line its lightest nuance, so enabling him to enter into the poet's mind at the moment of composition.

The horrors of the First World War released a great outburst of emotional poetry from the soldiers who fought in it as well as many other giants of world literature. Wilfred Owen, Rupert Brooke and W B Yeats are just some of the poets whose work is featured in this anthology. The raw emotion unleashed in these poems still has the power to move readers today. As well as poems detailing the miseries of war there are poems on themes of bravery, friendship and loyalty, and this collection shows how even in the depths of despair the human spirit can still triumph.
