Title: Edward Thomas
Subtitle: a poet for his country
Description: A well written book about the poet Edward Thomas that includes many extracts from his poetry and prose. Unlike the books on Thomas by his wife, Helen, and his friend Eleanor Farjeon, both of whom adored him, Jan Marsh's book is able to stand back  from her subject and view him objectively without undue reverence. This book is, perhaps, easier to read than the later work on the same poet by Matthew Hollis ("Now All Roads Lead to France") published in 2011.
