Written while Graves was serving with the Royal Welch Fusiliers, these poems move between the Western Front and the world of childhood. Pieces such as Dead Cow Farm, Two Fusiliers, Goliath and David and To Robert Nichols sit alongside whimsical verses about caterpillars, the cruel moon and wondering what it feels like to be drowned.

An early collection from the poet of Good-Bye to All That, valuable to anyone reading the soldier poets of 1914–1918. Download the free EPUB.
