Beschreibung
F.W. Harvey’s poetry was more popular during the First World War than many – if not most – of those whom we celebrate as ‘the war poets’ today. He is
unique among the poets of that war for his insight into the life of the British POW in Germany, and for the influence of his work in the first of the British
trench journals, the 5th Gloucester Gazette. Yet, he has received little national attention since his death in 1957, and scholarly work on his life is lacking,
largely owing to a deficit of publicly-available primary sources and original material regarding his life and works
This book offers a deep dive into the poetry of F.W. Harvey, providing a unique perspective on World War I literature that is often overshadowed by more widely known poets like Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon.
