Notes
This book pf poetry was originally published in 1916 by John Murray, London. The version we have in the Collection is an Open Source publication, and is basically a facsimile copy of the original, but bound by Bibliolife. Lee was a Lance-corporal in the Black Watch when the book was published in 1916; he later advanced to sergeant and was even later commissioned. The book contains 38 poems and a number of illustrations, all by Lee himself. See also Lee's biography "Fighter Writer: The Eventful Life of Sergeant Joe Lee, Scotland's Forgotten War Poet" by Bob Burrows, which is also in the Collection.
