First edition, first printing. 72pp. Red cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering on spine. 8vo. Hint of creaminess to pages else neat, clean, bright and tight throughout. In its original laminated, illustrated dust wrapper, very slightly shelf worn and very slightly bumped on edges.
From the blurb on the dust wrapper: "Just as Kipling's Barrack Room Ballads spoke for the Tommy Atkins of Queen Victoria's reign, so Vernon Scanell's remarkable new book-length sequence of poems...voices the often shocking and sometimes absurd and on occasion even comic aspects of military life".
