Trailing Clouds of Glory

An Anthology of Lake District Poetry

Edited by Cameron Self and Kevin Gardner

Drawings by Stephen Hyatt-Cross

“A marvellously comprehensive anthology that shows how much more there is to Lakeland poetry than Wordsworth (though he’s generously represented), with Norman Nicholson leading the way for later poets (outstanding among them William Scammell, Grevel Lindop, Matthew Hollis and Kim Moore) as aspects of landscape are minutely observed (mountains, lakes, fells, becks, rainfall, Herdwick sheep) and names lovingly recited: Skiddaw, Grasmere, Rydal, Helvellyn…The perfect poetry collection
for anyone who loves or wants to discover the Lakes.”

Blake Morrison

“The best and most comprehensive Lakeland anthology ever produced!”

Grevel Lindop
