Publisher's Synopsis

George Crabbe (1754-1832) was privy to both poverty and provincial society at the turn of the 19th century. Throughout the unheaval of the Romantic movement he persisted in his precise, closely observed, realistic rural portraits, writing mainly in the heroic couplets of the preceding age.

About the Publisher

Penguin Books Ltd

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
