Blunden, Edmund (1896-1974)

Abstract

Photograph of some of Edmund Blunden's fellow offivers, including James Cassells, who inspired the poem 'An Infantryman'. He notes that the photograph was taken in '1917, I suppose'. The book was compiled by Blunden with the intention of providing complementary photographs supporting the narrative and poems of 'Undertones of War' (1928), and was inscribed 'E.B. New Year, 1935' while Blunden was living in North Oxford, a neighbour of Graham Greene.
