Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) was a poet, considered to be one of the finest of the Victorian era. In 1850, Tennyson became poet laureate and remained so until his death, the longest serving to date. The first peer to be created for his writing, Lord Tennyson is best remembered for his tribute to British cavalrymen, The Charge of the Light Brigade.
