Availability: Normally dispatched within 24 hours.

Product Review
This volume includes detailed biographies of ten First World War male poets and in-depth analysis of twenty-eight of their poems, making it the ideal resource for students studying First World War poetry at GCSE and A-level - Key Stages 4 and 5.

Studying literature is not about being right or wrong, it is entirely a matter of opinion. The secret to success is developing the ability to form these opinions and to deliver them succinctly and reinforce them with quotes and clear references from the text. Great War Literature Study Guides help to extend your knowledge of First World War literature and offer clear definitions and guidance to enhance your studying.

In studying war poetry it is essential that students should have a thorough understanding of the poets themselves, which is why, in the Great War Literature Study Guides, the biographical detail always comes first. This is followed in each case, by a detailed analysis of the major works of the poet including comparisons with other First World War literature and poetry.

Further volumes in this series will be published in the future and a complimentary volume on female war poets of the First World War is also available.
