This unusual and beautiful book collects together twenty five of the often read, well-loved poets. Each poet is illustrated with an original watercolour portrait by the talented young artist, Charlotte Zeepvat, who reproduces in pleasing script one of their works, giving a biographical summary that placed the poet firmly in the battlefield context in which their work was conceived. Sadly, many of these young poets still lie on the poignant battlefields of France and Belgium where they fought.
