Description
Robert Frost is one of the most popular American poets of the twentieth century. Born in 1874, he came to England in 1912, where he met Rupert Brooke, Lascelles Abercrombie, Edward Thomas and other poets and gained recognition as a major young poet. In America, where he lived for most of his life, he was awarded the Pulitzer prize four times; gave a speech at President Kennedy's inauguration; and was sentby him to talk to Krushchev. . But though part of the Establishment, Frost was always a maverick. This meticulously researched work, which includes interviews dating back twenty years with those who knew Frostthroughout his life, is the definitive biography of a much loved poet.
