Frank Laurence Lucas (1894–1967) was a renowned English author, poet and classicist, often remembered for his polemical attacks on key modernist figures such as T. S. Eliot, as well as his meticulous scholarship in the production of texts such as the four-volume Complete Works of John Webster. Tthis book presents an accessible selection of Dante Gabriel Rossetti's poetry edited by Lucas.
