A paperback reissue of a beautiful anthology.
A diverse collection of poetry which celebrates both England and all
that it means to be English - from the rolling hills, to those lost in
battle over the centuries, to London's bustling streets and a nation
obsessed with the weather. Ode to England encompasses a breadth of
poetry from our most renowned writers - such as William Wordsworth, D.
H. Lawrence and William Blake - alongside verses from less prestigious
names which equally capture many inspiring visions of our 'sceptered
isle'. The poems are accompanied by stunning illustrations which pay
further tribute to the beauty of this green and pleasant land.
The perfect gift for any Englishman or Anglophile, this wonderful
collection captures all the beauty and eccentricities of England and
Englishness.
