Description
Excerpt from West Country Poets: Their Lives and Works; Being an Account of About Four Hundred Verse Writers of Devon and Cornwall, With Poems and Extracts
It would be difficult to find two counties in England which have produced more poets of standing than Devon and Cornwall. The vigour of the people of this West Country and the beauty of the district may be held to account for this pre-eminence in poetic culture and expression; we can almost trace a ?avour of the air and scenery of the country in many of the writings of its sons.
