"Enoch Arden (1864) was based on a true story of a sailor, thought to be drowned at sea but who returned home after several years only to find that his wife had remarried. In the poem Enoch Arden, Philip Ray and Annie Lee grow up together. Enoch wins her hand. He sails abroad and is shipwrecked for 10 years on a deserted island. Meanwhile Annie has been reduced to poverty. Philip asks her to marry him. Enoch returns and witnesses their happiness, but hides that he is alive and sacrifices his happiness for theirs". (kirjasto) "In Memoriam A. H. H. is considered one of the single most influential poems of the Victorian age. It was a favorite of Queen Victorias and her husband Prince Albert and was so admired by the royal couple that Tennyson was appointed poet laureate the year the poem was published. The complete poem consists of 131 sections and was written over the course of seventeen years, capturing the development of the poets grief over the death of his friend Arthur Henry Hallam".(enotes). Pp.184, engraved frontispiece, toning to endpapers. Green cloth, gilt title to spine, top and tail of spine slightly rubbed. VG.
