A delightful, thoughtful and original new way to understand England's history
'This is a marvellous idea, quite brilliantly realised. Catherine Clarke takes 25 poems[…] and uses them as windows into the English past, from politics and plagues to nature and nostalgia. Her book is a winning blend of jolly ballads and melancholy reflections, alive to the ways in which the meanings of England and Englishness are never fixed, always changing' - Dominic Sandbrook, The Times
