Ivor Gurney (1890-1937), considered one of the finest World War I
poets, now takes his rightful place alongside the greats of English
poetry. His range is wide, including the First World War, in which
he served as an infantry private; passionate celebration of his
native Gloucestershire; and fears of the mental imbalance which led
to his eventual confinement in a mental hospital. Out of these
experiences, he created poetry that is entirely unique, vigorous,
musical, and direct. This selection of over 150 of his best poems,
has been compiled by the poet P.J. Kavanagh from his edition of the
Collected Poems of Ivor Gurney. This reissued edition offers, a few
corrected readings, as well as a useful Chronology and Introduction
to Gurney's life by P. J. Kavanagh.
