A never before published collection of humorous and un-jingoistic war poetry from the trench and front line. A 'Tommies' View' covering both world wars and most major campaigns. Many of the poems have never been seen in print before and are derived almost entirely from archives. Illustrated with drawings and watercolours from unpublished war artists and offers a unique insight and a different approach leading up the 1914 centenary of the First World War. Each poem is accompanied by a brief background on the author and campaign.
