Thomas Hood: The Uncrowned Laureate

By Peter Thorogood

A critical study of the life and work of one of the most popular poets of the Victorian era.

Thomas Hood was skilled in almost every form of poetic writing-romantic verse, poems of social conscience, and witty parodies, as well as being an accomplished painter, engraver and caricaturist.

Illustrated in full colour with many of Hood's paintings and pen-and-ink sketches, published here for the first time.
