This vintage book contains Ernest Dowson’s 1905 collection of poetry, “The Poems of Ernest Dowson”. A fantastic compendium of diverse poesy, this volume would make for a worthy addition to any collection, and is highly recommended for fans of decadent poetry. Ernest Dowson (1867 - 1900) was an English short-story writer, poet, and novelist.
