A collection of poems by Wilfred Edward Salter Owen, MC, who was an English poet and soldier, he is thought to be the greatest of all the British First World War poets. His shocking, realistic war poetry on the horrors of trench and gas warfare was heavily influenced by his friend Siegfried Sassoon and sat in stark contrast to both the public perception of war at the time, and to the confidently patriotic verse written earlier by war poets such as Rupert Brooke. Some of his best-known works - most of which remained unpublished until after his death - include Dulce Et Decorum Est, Anthem for Doomed Youth, Futility and Strange Meeting.
