Born in London and orphaned early, John Keats published only three volumes of poetry during his lifetime. While many of his contemporaries were quick to recognize his greatness, snobbery and political hostility led the Tory press to vilify and patronize him as a "Cockney poet." This selection of Keat's finest poetry is designed for the poetry lover and student alike. It contains all his best known poetry as well as a sample of less familiar pieces.
