Muse of Fire: World War I As Seen Through the Eyes of Soldier Poets

The story of the First World War is told not in any conventional way but through the intertwined lives of the soldier poets who came to describe it best, and indeed to symbolize the war’s tragic arc and lethal fury. Best-selling Korda focuses on Rupert Brooke, Alan Seeger, Siegfried Sasson, Isaac Rosenberg, and Wilfred Owen. “A masterful book, nimble, lyrical, and searing, and a volume Michael Korda alone could have written" (Stacy Schiff).
