Description: This book provides a full-length critical study of William Morris's late works and demonstrates their essential role in promoting the continuing importance of Morris's ideas. It provides a new way of understanding their relevance to his writings on art and architecture, nature and the environment, and politics and Socialism.

Review Quotes: Bennett's book heightens our understanding of Morris's exceptional accomplishments, and links many of them - the body, ecology, the relation between social inequality and human ills - to issues that plague us still.
(Susan Jaret McKinstry, Journal of Pre-Raphaelite Studies 25/2016)
