Climber's Dream

Climber's Dream

by Edward Woodley Bowling

This book is a collection of poems by Edward Woodley Bowling, a rector at the Church of All Saints in Houghton Conquest, Bedfordshire, England in the late 1800s. The poems are mainly about nature, climbing, and religion, and are written in a simple and straightforward style. Bowling's poems are not particularly sophisticated or original, but they are sincere and heartfelt, and offer a glimpse into the mind of a Victorian clergyman.
