The Lake Poets
The Lake Poets puts the Lake District at the heart of the English literary imagination. ― James Rebanks
William Wordsworth, Dorothy Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Robert Southey and Charles Lamb, the English 'lake poets', were famously inspired by the landscape of the English Lake District in the first half of the nineteenth century.
This beautifully produced anthology of their work includes favourites such as "I Wander'd Lonely as a Cloud" and "Kubla Khan," as well as extracts from letters and journals. Introduced by James Rebanks, who grew up in the region, it is the perfect companion for visitors to the Lakes and a delightful gift for poetry lovers.
