This is a unique anthology - the most comprehensive and the most original collection of poems of the Second World War that has yet been published.What distinguishes this book from any other collection is that all the poems were written during theWar, on active service, not in hindsight years later. The poetry comes from all the theatres of the War and from all the services. Over 200 names are included here, some of whom are leading poets today, for example. Roy Fuller, Gavin Ewart, Vernon Scannell, and Alan Ross. Other published poets of the was - Keith Douglas, John Jarmain, Sydney Keyes, Alan White - were among thosr who did not return. Their memorial is here, together with many poems by men and women - who felt compelled to write for the first time in the Second World War.
