Ode to the Sea: Poems to Celebrate Britain's Maritime Heritage

A wonderful anthology of poetry celebrating the British coastline and life above and below the deep blue sea. Verses from some of the best–loved authors—such as W. B. Yeats, R. L. Stevenson, and Rudyard Kipling—are accompanied by beautiful illustrations of idyllic days at sea, haunted shipwrecks, and tempestuous storms. Sea shanties and siren's songs sit alongside the classic song from The Tempest and Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner in this beautiful anthology of the mystical world beneath the waves.
