1914 and Other Poems

This volume contains a fantastic collection of poetry written by Rupert Chawner Brooke. Rupert Chawner (1887 - 1915) was an English poet famous for the idealistic war sonnets that he wrote during the First World War, namely "The Soldier". This wonderful collection will appeal to a range of poetry lovers, but will be of special interest to those with a penchant for war poetry. The poems of this collection include: "Peace", "Safety", "The Dead", "The Soldier", "The Treasure", "Tiare Tahiti", "Retrospect", "The Great Lover", "Heaven", "Doubts", "There''s Wisdom in Women", "He Wonders Whether to Praise or to Blame Her", "A Memory", and more. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
