Arranged by dates of death, this book gives the short life-and-death stories, including an account of the battle in which he died, of 66 published British poets killed in Flanders fields. With poems, letters and diaries by each one, the chronology begins with R. W. Sterling, killed in April 1915 and ends with Wilfred Owen, killed a week before armistice in 1918. The early optimism and fervor are replaced by cynicism and awful reality. Although some names are well known -- Owen, Rosenberg, Sorley and Edward Thomas -- others are less so, but the intimate personal accounts in their letters home, and in diaries and poems reveal the intense emotional experience of the combatant at war. Includes maps locating the graves of the poets.
