Title: The Shorter Poems of Robert Bridges Books I-V
Description: London, Geo. Bell and Sons, 1907. Leather. An attractive collection of Bridges' poetry. A new edition. Robert Seymour Bridges, OM, (23 October 1844 – 21 April 1930) was a British poet, and poet laureate from 1913 to 1930. As a poet Bridges stands rather apart from the current of modern English verse, but his work has had great influence in a select circle, by its restraint, purity, precision, and delicacy yet strength of expression. It embodies a distinct theory of prosody. Bridge's faith underpinned much of his work. In a quarter calf binding with cloth-covered boards and gilt decoration to spine. Externally, very smart with slight fading to spine only. Internally, firmly bound, generally bright and clean. Near Fine . Ill.: None. Near Fine .
