A Shropshire Lad - Softcover

Probably no poetry in modern times has had as much influence on the literary world as A. E. Housman's A Shropshire Lad. As the New York Times said, "Housman has miniatured man's fate to the last twist of the knife and still he has made it bearable with the demonstration that truth and beauty go with it." This edition contains commissioned art works by Randolph Brown, famous Boston artist at the turn of the century; it also includes an Introduction by William Stanley Braithwaite.
