Autograph Letter Signed


Book Description

To the American publishers Ticknor and Fields, accepting £20 in return for advance sheets of his next book. Tennyson asks that they should not credit the idea that he is writing an "Epic of King Arthur," saying "I should be crazed to write such a thing in the middle of the 19th century." Tennyson's next book was, of course, Idylls of the king (1859).
