FIRST EDITION. 8vo. 5.75 x 8.75 inches. 91 pp. Bound in original grey cloth, gilt, in dust wrapper. A very good copy. Decorated by publisher's device on title page. William Graves here collected all his father's war poems (54), including five previously unpublished, together with marginalia made by Graves in his own copies of the early books. Bibliographical noted show where each poem was published and the variants it went through before it was suppressed. In later years, Graves omitted the war poems from his collections on the grounds that they were 'part of the war poetry boom.'
