BBC History Magazine

Owen deserved but has so far lacked a definitive biography. Now it is indisputably here.

Independent On Sunday

Hibberd has probably done more than any other individual to illuminate Owen's life and work...a triumph ....It is difficult to believe it will ever be superseded.

Literary Review

Hibberd's biography is particularly effective in communicating a sense of its subject's shy charm.

New York Times Book Review

[A] magisterial biography.

Sunday Times

This rich, compelling, formidably researched enterprise...is the fruit of half a lifetime's devotion to Owen's memory.

Time Literary Supplement

...It is hard to see how [this book] could be improved upon.
