The Crimean War in Victorian Poetry Book Description
This is the first book-length study to examine the predicaments and achievements of mid-Victorian war poets. Confronted with news of suffering soldiers during the Crimean War (1854-6), these 'armchair poets' engaged with the politics of war by composing lines of verse at home, reworking established traditions of war poetry.
