About the author

F. W. (Frederick William) Harvey

1888–1957

A First World War poet with a gift for warmth, humor, and homesickness, he became one of the best-loved literary voices of Gloucestershire. His writing moves easily between battlefield experience and a deep affection for the English countryside.
