Book Synopsis William Wordsworth by : Hunter Davies
Book excerpt: More than any other poet, Wordsworth was his own biographer, and told his story through his verse. This work on the poet's entire life and times remains the only full-length popular biography. It draws upon the letters and diaries of Wordsworth and his sister, Dorothy, and of their contemporaries Coleridge and Southey. Hunter Davies also draws upon his own knowledge of the Lake District, which featured so strongly in Wordsworth's life, to present a complete portrait of England's best known poet. Book jacket.
