Wilfred Owen's realistic portrayals of war gave voice to the soldier wounded, captured, or killed - not just in the Great War but in every war since, so great is the evocative power of his work. Although he saw only five poems published during his lifetime, Owen left behind a wealth of letters and poetry that together form a powerful legacy. This generously illustrated book tells the story of Owen's life and work, from his birth in 1893 to his tragic death just one week before the signing of the armistice that would end the war.
