The Silence of Adam by Lawrence J Crabb
Sir Henry John Newbolt (1862-1938) was a British author and poet. He was born in Bilston, Wolverhampton, the son of the Vicar of St Mary's Church, the Rev. Henry Francis Newbolt. He attended Queen Mary's Grammar School, Walsall, and Caistor Grammar School, from where he gained a scholarship to Clifton College, where he was head of the school (1881) and edited the school magazine. His contemporaries there included Douglas Haig. Graduating from Corpus Christi College, Oxford, Newbolt was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1887 and practised until 1899. His first book was a novel, Taken from the Enemy (1892), and in 1895 he published a tragedy, Mordred; but it was the publication of his ballads, Admirals All (1897), that created his literary reputation. By far the best-known of these is Vitai Lampada. They were followed by other volumes of stirring verse, including The Island Race (1898), The Sailing of the Long-ships (1902), and Songs of the Sea (1904). In 1914, Newbolt published Aladore, a fantasy novel about a bored but dutiful knight who abruptly abandons his estate and wealth to discover his heart's desire and woo a half-fae enchantress.
