WILFRED OWEN (1893-1918) was killed in action a week before the signing of the armistice. Only a handful of his verses were published in his lifetime. In spite of this, Owen more than any other writer has shaped modern ideas about the Great War. "e;Dulce Et Decorum Est"e;, "e;Strange Meeting"e; and "e;Anthem for Doomed Youth"e; have saddened and thrilled generations since. This is largely thanks to his friend Siegfried Sassoon, who brought out an edition of the war poems in 1920. Edmund Blunden edited a more complete collection in 1931 and C. Day Lewis a third in 1963, but it is Sassoon's choice, selected and arranged for impact, that everyone remembers. This ebook includes all the familiar poems plus a few others less directly concerned with the fighting. They are rearranged in chronological order, in so far as dates are known, to show the development of his work.
