Reviews
'Review from previous edition Vandiver ranges from the history of classics teaching in schools at the end of the nineteenth century to detailed consideration of the history and usage of particular motifs suct famously reworked by Wilfred Owen. As well as public schools such as Eton and Marlborough, she scrutinizes the curricula of grammar schools and the ways in which classical texts were encountered both in the original and in translation. Hers is aninclusive study of poets and poems from across social classes and military ranks, devoting detailed attention to familiar figures such as Rudyard Kipling, Rupert Brooke, Wilfred Owen, and Isaac Rosenberg, aswell as less well-known writers, such as J.L. Crommelin Brown and Joseph Streets.'Matthew Creasy, Years Work in English Studies'The book is abrim with research ... it is enthrallingly written and on the sly it provides a fascinating socio-historical account of the making of the officer classes'Tim Kendall, War Poetry Blog'The wealth of Vandiver's material is admirable. The study includes numerous relatively unknown poets and makes available hitherto unpublished material.'Claudia Olk, Zeitschrift für Anglistik und Amerikanistik, "The most useful as a compendium of information about the poets of the Great War. Her study opens discussion of their body of work to a wide audience and invites others to follow her lead. The work she has done to nail down the facts, particularly biographical details of the authors she cites, is a remarkable as is the exactness she strives for. This substantial volume will be particularly valuable to anyone concerned with or interested in the little-known poets and verse cited." --Bryn Mawr Classical Review, "The book is abrim with research ... it is enthrallingly written and on the sly it provides a fascinating socio-historical account of the making of the officer classes" --Tim Kendall, War Poetry Blog, Review from previous edition: "Vandiver ranges from the history of classics teaching in schools at the end of the nineteenth century to detailed consideration of the history and usage of particular motifs suct famously reworked by Wilfred Owen.

Do not buy from this seller! Item was not as advertised, used, dirty, missing pages and basically a wait to get money back! Had to jump through their hoops to get my money back even after looking and finding this is something they do a lot of. Please read the reviews!,,
