Alfred Tennyson became more than the most celebrated poet of Victorian Britain. He became one of the voices through which an age understood grief, faith, war, empire, duty and national identity.

From an unsettled childhood in rural Lincolnshire and the devastating death of his closest friend Arthur Hallam, Tennyson rose to become Poet Laureate, confidant of Queen Victoria and eventually a peer of the realm. His career produced some of the nineteenth century's most enduring poetry, including In Memoriam, Ulysses, The Charge of the Light Brigade, Idylls of the King and Crossing the Bar.
