William Butler Yeats: Nobel Prize Winning Poet (Irish Heroes)

Yeats is widely regarded as one of the most important English-language writers of the 20th century. A hero of the pen rather than the sword. A Nobel Prize winner for Literature and a two-term senator of the Irish Free State, Yeats lived a full, active life that combined poetry and politics.Unlike other modernists who dabbled in free verse, Yeats was a master of standard verse styles, as well.
