About this book:
A charming Edwardian gift edition of selected poems by Matthew Arnold, one of the great voices of Victorian poetry and a writer of profound lyrical beauty. From the melancholy sweep of Dover Beach to the tender pastoral of The Scholar Gipsy, Arnold's poetry captures a world caught between faith and doubt, nature and modernity, with an elegance that has never lost its power.
This delightful pocket-sized volume is bound in red suede with an embossed decorative cartouche to the front cover, and features lovely colour illustrations by Alice Ross alongside beautiful marbled endpapers. Published by W. P. Nimmo, Hay & Mitchell of Edinburgh, it is a fine example of the illustrated gift books produced for the Edwardian market, made to be given, kept and loved.
