This is a volume of war poetry by English poet and playwright Robert Nichols. To quote Wikipedia: “On 11 November 1985, Nichols was among 16 Great War poets commemorated on a slate stone unveiled in Westminster Abbey’s Poet’s Corner. The inscription on the stone was written by a fellow Great War poet, Wilfred Owen. It reads: ‘My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity.'” This particular volume of poetry contains his most well-known poems, and is also perhaps one of the most haunting collections of war poetry in the English language. – Summary by Carolin
