The enduring appeal of this lyrical English poem, first published in 1896, lies in its exploration of the universal themes of loss, nostalgia and love. Certainly its international popularity today is undiminished.
The rural landscape of the beautiful Shropshire countryside, from the bucolic Clun valley to the bleak hills of Stiperstones, is sympathetically captured by one of Shropshire's finest photographers, John Hayward.
This is the only photographic edition of A Shropshire Lad in which the county's stunning landscapes, which have scarcely altered since Housman's day, have been matched with the stanzas on each page.
