In America, where he lived for most of his life, he was awarded the Pulitzer prize four times; gave a speech at President Kennedy's inauguration; and was sentby him to talk to Krushchev. . But though part of the Establishment, Frost was always a maverick. This meticulously researched work, which includes interviews dating back twenty years with those who knew Frostthroughout his life, is the definitive biography of a much loved poet.
