The first biography to reveal the true affinity between Blake's art and poetry; in the magnificent biographical account, we see Blake as a Cockney visionary and a London merchant, as a prophet and a craftsman. In the course of Blake's story, Ackroyd recreates eighteenth-century London in a way that only he can.
