Tennyson Remembrance Book

As evidenced by the sheer number of Tennyson tributes made available in the 1890s, the passing of the immensely popular Poet Laureate affected many. Published shortly after Tennyson's death in 1893, this "memorial for the poet's reader friends" provides a touching look at the personal life of the great poet, with glimpses of his boyhood, his family life, and his tenure at Farringford, his Isle of Wight estate. Also included are considerations of Tennyson's works and legacy by prominent literary scholars and even an estimate by the influential American author Edgar Allen Poe. With ample illustrations of sites associated with the beloved poet, this volume offers a lovely tribute for fans of Tennyson.
