Synopsis

Ralph Hodgson gave up a successful career as an illustrator and cartoonist to concentrate on poetry. With award-winning poems such as 'The Bull' and 'The Song of Honour' he achieved a high reputation. But after World War 1 his productivity declined and he almost disappeared from public view. This introduction, with a generous selection of his poetry, aims to make amends for the neglect of this sensitive, very distinctive, approachable and witty writer. His concern with ecology and the fate of wildlife is of obvious relevance now, and new readers should have the chance to see why he was once a treasure trove for the anthologist.
