William Cowper

This scarce book was first published in 1891. It comprises a collection of poems by the 18th century poet and hymnologist, William Cooper, who was one of the most popular poets of the age and can be considered as a forerunner to the Romantic poets. It is a n absorbing collection that will delight all poetry lovers. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

The Task and Other Poems

The letters chosen for this volume build into a kind of biography, tracing Cowper through a series of relationships and crises, including his evangelical conversion, his love for Mary Unwin, and his final years. He also wrote about Olney, a place which mattered deeply to the poet.
