This is a lively and authoritative guide to the life Pope called 'a
warfare upon earth'. Dr Rosslyn gives a sympathetic portrait of the
poet who overcame the obscurity of his origins and the
embarrassment of his deformity to become the uncrowned laureate of
his age - and also make the largest literary fortune since
Shakespeare's. She describes the mixture of passion and pragmatism
that created poetry out of a legion of enemies (and a wide circle
of distinguished friends), and pays tribute to the professionalism
of a poet who thought no sacrifice too great for his art.
