Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Poems and Plays of John Masefield, Vol. 2
When I was finishing N an I worked at a one-act play upon The Death of Pompey the Great, as described in the life of Pom pey in North's Plutarch. The tragedy of Pompey seemed to be too big a subject for a one-act play, so I left the draft and began anew on fuller lines. I wrote the first act of the play in 1908 in London and the second and third acts in 1909 at Great Hampden.
