Description
Alfred Williams (1877-1930), dubbed 'the hammerman poet', was a self-taught Wiltshire genius, whose life was toil and poverty, but who deserves to live on and be remembered as a sensitive chronicler of village life, folksong collector, industrial reporter - and rural poet, in the mould of Clare, Cowper and Whitman. This is a facsimile reprint of his Selected Poems, published in 1925, to which has been appended one longer poem, 'The Testament', a joyful celebration of nature and mankind's place in the world.
