Rupert Brooke (1887 - 1915) is best remembered for his wartime sonnets that celebrated the mythic image of the heroic soldier. Brooke's "elegy to England," his 1914 poem "The Soldier," "was probably the best-known sonnet published in English in the twentieth century" (ODNB). Brooke died at sea en route to Gallipoli just a few months after enlisting, and most of his poetry was published posthumously in two editions: 1914 and other Poems (1915) and his Collected Poems (1918). The present edition finely reprints the 1918 collection. Near Fine.…
