Book Overview

John Philips' The Splendid Shilling is a satirical poem that imitates John Milton's epic style. The poem takes aim at the corrupt political and social institutions of 18th-century England, using humor and wit to skewer the excesses of the upper classes. Blenheim, a Poem, is a patriotic work that celebrates the Duke of Marlborough's victory at the Battle of Blenheim. This collection is an excellent introduction to Philips' wit and poetic talents.
