Boer War Lyrics by Louis Selmer presents Battlefield Poetry from the Boer Wars. Excerpt: "O, what hangs so leaden on the brow of Night, As if grim Darkness 'pon herself had bred, To make a second and a direr gloom?

Then stretch a will to hear it out? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from American War Ballads and Lyrics, Vol. 1: A Collection of the Songs and Ballads of the Colonial Wars, the Revolution, the War of 1812-15, the War With Mexico, and the Civil War The complex nature of the considerations that must determine the choice of poems for inclusion is but one of several difficulties encountered in the execution of such a task as this. In any event, many things must be omitted which merit insertion, and the reader who misses a favorite piece is prompt to point to others which seem to him less worthy, and to ask why these were not made to give place to the one omitted. There are three answers to be made to the challenge of such a reader first, that his judgment in the matter may be wrong second, that the editor, being human, may have erred in his choice; and third, that in a collection intended to be broadly representative rather than complete, preference must sometimes be given to the less worthy piece which happens to reflect some phase of sentiment not otherwise presented, even at the cost of sacrificing the worthier one which illustrates aspects otherwise sufficiently Shown. So much by way of explanation, not of apology for if a book be in need of apology, no apology can be sufficient for it.
