The Book of Nature - Wordsworth's Poetry on Nature is a sublime collection of the best nature poetry by poet-laureate William Wordsworth, housed in a convenient pocket-sized edition.

Along with many other Romantic poets of the time, the theme of nature features heavily in the work of Wordsworth - to him, it represented a living thing, a sublime teacher-god that contained all beauty and divine truth. Wordsworth expresses his view on the natural world through the poetry in this charming collection while articulating his relationship with nature and its essential connection with human beings.

Poems featured in this collection include:
    - Influence of Natural Objects
    - Lines Written in Early Spring
    - My Heart Leaps Up
    - Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey
    - To the Clouds

Carefully curated by Read & Co. Books, this collection of twenty-one poems also features an introductory excerpt on William Wordsworth by Thomas Carlyle from his 1881 work Reminiscences. The perfect gift for poetry readers and nature lovers alike, this beautiful pocket edition is a wonderful book of posey for those who love reading on the go.

About William Wordsworth

William Wordsworth (1770–1850) was an English poet born in Cockermouth, Cumberland, and a founding figure of English Romanticism. With Samuel Taylor Coleridge he co-authored Lyrical Ballads (1798), which included a Preface in its 1800 edition. His long autobiographical poem The Prelude, composed over much of his adult life, was published posthumously in 1850. Other works include Tintern Abbey, Ode: Intimations of Immortality, and the sonnet The World Is Too Much with Us. He was appointed Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom in 1843.
