W.H. Auden wrote that David Jones's The Anathemata is "very probably the finest long long poem written in English this century." The Roman Quarry is a further part of that work, in the sense that Jones saw himself as writing a single long poem. This book represents a recovery of manuscripts arranged after David Jones's death in 1974.
