Richard Jefferies, His Life and Worfc by Edward Thomas , first published in 1909, has been described by Q. D. Leavis as aclassic of critical biography.' It has just been reprinted to mark the centenary of Thomas's birth, and P. J. Kavanagh argues that it tells as much about Edward Thomas the poet, as it does about his subject.

1886-1967 with Hugh Burden as Siegfried Sassoon
Hugh Dickson as The Reader
' My real biography is my poetry:
Last thing at night, in solitude serene,
I am unpossessed of all that I have been.
It is as though I were about to go
Some journeying far beyond what now I know.'
(SIEGFRIED SASSOON)
' Siegfried Sassoon has always seemed to me a parable of 20th-century man. To most of those acquainted with his name he is essentially the Fox-hunting man, the Infantry officer and poet of the First World War. Few knew him for what he was beneath outward appearances - prophet, sage, pilgrim, a Mr Valiant for Truth going to the Celestial City ':
Dame Felicitas Corrigan , OSB, a close friend of Sassoon during his later years, who presents the programme.
