More Information
Rupert Brooke, 1887 - 1915, lost his life, blood poisoning, on a
troop ship. Although he was already published his greatest fame came
posthumously. He is best known for his work The Soldier and its famous opening
lines, frankly these, in our opinion, should be enough to secure his legacy.
If I should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is for ever England.
Needless to say, he is very collectable with his earliest work going for
considerable sums. Most of the work saw no American release so we have confined
the bibliography to only English first editions.
Some critics have said his fame and renown extends his canon of work, we believe
this, whilst not dismissing it, to be somewhat churlish. His words, few though
they may be, have defined a part of history for many people.
