Great Reference

We used this book as a resource for one of my English classes in college. I liked it because it contained a wide selection of Pre-Raphaelite poems and other selections, as well as included a few plates of their distinctive artwork as well. This is a great resource if you are interested primarily in the writing style of this movement, but perhaps consider another selection if you are interested more in the paintings.
