Selected Letters of Siegfried Sassoon and Edmund Blunden, 1919–1967 Vol 1

By Carol Z Rothkopf Copyright 2013

    Of the 16 WWI poets memorialized in Westminster Abbey, two were destined to become lifelong friends. Although both served on the Western Front, it was not until 1919 that Siegfried Sassoon received his first letter from Edmund Blunden. This collection of Sassoon and Blunden’s correspondence contains more than 1,000 letters, cards and telegrams.
