About this ebook
This biography of poet Edmund Spenser (c. 1552–1599), is an invaluable source for students of Spenser. Unparalleled in its information about one of the greatest poets in the English language, Church illuminates the life of a man who is best known for his epic poem The Faerie Queene, an adventure-filled tale that is also an allegory about living a moral, virtuous life.
