About this ebook
"Songs of Love and Empire" is a 1898 collection of poetry by E. Nesbit. Edith Nesbit (1858 – 1924) was an English poet and author. She is perhaps best remembered for her children's literature, publishing more than 60 such books under the name E. Nesbit. She was also a political activist and co-founded the Fabian Society, which had a significant influence on the Labour Party and British politics in general. This wonderful collection of her best poetry will appeal to fans of her work and would make for a fantastic addition to any bookshelf. The poems include: “To The Queen of England”, “After Sixty Years”, “Trafalgar Day”, “A Song of Trafalgar”, “Waterloo Day”, “A Song of Peace and Honour”, “The Ballad of the White Lady”, “The Ghost Bereft”, “The Vain Spell”, “The Adventurer”, “In The Enchanted Tower”, “Faith”, “Prelude”, “At the Sound of the Drum”, “The Goose-Girl”, and more. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
