In mid to late March 1913 Edward Thomas took a bicycle ride from Clapham to the Quantock Hills. The poet recorded his journey; In Pursuit of Spring was published in 1914. One of his most important works, it stands as an elegy for a lost world. Thomas photographed much of what he saw. The prints are now published for the very first time.

A critical edition of Edward Thomas' 1903 account of Oxford.

Edward Thomas was born in Lambeth, London, in 1878, and educated at St Paul's College and Lincoln College, Oxford. Interspersed are poems that often distil the theme of a prose description and show that Thomas's strength as a poet is more than equal to his creative achievement as a writer of prose.

Already established as the leading young critic of contemporary verse, Edward Thomas used this volume to further a longstanding aim - to present English literature to a new audience. First published in 1907, the collection draws among others on Thomas's contemporaries Yeats, de la Mare, T.

Thomas's own book of that title, published before he was to become known as a poet, already reveals the poet's sensitivity for language and the poet's eye for truth. Thomas was always aware of the richness of the English countryside, the elusive beauty of the natural world.

For Edward Thomas, Richard Jefferies (1848-87) was more than a nature writer: he was a guiding spirit of the English landscape who affected a profound influence upon Thomas's own writings.

Mahmud Muhammad Taha was the leader of the 'Republican Brothers and Sisters', a small group of Sudanese nationalists who called for a mystical, inclusive reinterpretation of Islam that ended traditional legal discriminations against women and non-Muslims. This book explores the life and ideas of this Sudanese reformer.

Acutely sensitive to rhythms of the countryside, Edward Thomas's lyrical, passionate, and sometimes political writing merges natural history with folk culture, and gives us a free-form record of the feelings and observations of one of the great poets of the English language. First published 1909 by J.M. Dent & Sons

Edward Thomas wrote a lifetime's poetry in just two years during the First World War. Already a dedicated prose writer and influential critic, he became a poet only in December 1914, at the age of 36. This edition includes notes containing substantial quotations from Thomas' prose, letters and notebooks, as well as detailed commentary on the poems.

Features stories that explore the relation between the human world and the realm of nature.

This collection of letters presents a vivid portrait of Thomas's life, from his time as an undergraduate at Oxford to his final days in battle during World War I. They trace his struggle to establish himself as a writer, his successful fight against depression, and the strain of his marriage.

The definitive collection of Edward Thomas's poetic oeuvre.
