5.0 out of 5 stars A well researched biography of one of Britain's finest poets, 22 Aug 2001
By A Customer
Lovely, well researched biography, with good and full information from childhood to death. Numerous photographs also accompany the text. It contains many useful quotes from Wilfred Owen's younger brother, as well as poems and excerps from letters by Wilfred Owen. The volume is finished off beautifully with an amazing afterward.
