The book Patrick Shaw-Stewart by Ronald Knox is a biography of the titular figure, who was a prominent British poet and scholar in the early 20th century. The book traces Shaw-Stewart's life from his childhood in Scotland to his education at Oxford, where he became a member of the famous literary group, the Oxford Apostles. The book also delves into Shaw-Stewart's romantic relationships, including his intense but ultimately doomed love affair with the writer Vita Sackville-West. Throughout the book, Knox explores Shaw-Stewart's literary output, including his poetry and essays, and provides insight into the intellectual and cultural climate of the time. The book also touches on Shaw-Stewart's involvement in World War I, where he served as a soldier and was killed in action at the age of 29. Overall, Patrick Shaw-Stewart is a comprehensive and engaging biography that sheds light on the life and work of a fascinating figure in British literary and intellectual history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
