In mid to late March 1913, as the storm clouds of the Great War
which was to claim his life gathered, Edward Thomas took a bicycle
ride from Clapham to the Quantock Hills. The poet recorded his
journey through his beloved South Country and his account was
published as In Pursuit of Spring in 1914. Regarded as one of his
most important prose works, it stands as an elegy for a world now
lost. What is less well-known is that Thomas took with him a
camera, and photographed much of what he saw, noting the locations
on the back of the prints. These have been kept in archives for
many years and will now be published for the very first time in the
book. Thomas journeys through Guildford, Winchester, Salisbury,
across the Plain, to the Bristol Channel, recording the poet's
thoughts and feelings as winter ends.
