Review
"'A compelling tale' Ian Hamilton, Sunday Telegraph 'Based on years of research and well-fuelled by Sassoon's family and friends who granted Wilson access to a mass of private papers, this is the first volume of what promises to be the definitive biography of an important and neglected poet.' Robert Nye, The Scotsman"
