Lord Byron’s first epic poem, “Childe Harold”, was published in 1812. Only 12 years later after a life including exile, marriage and fatherhood, he died aged 36 at Missolonghi in Greece. First written in 1924, this is an acclaimed narrative of the final months of Lord Byron’s life when he left Italy to help organize the fight for Greece’s freedom from the Turks.
