Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Waste Paper Philosophy to Which Has Been Added Magpies in Picardy: And Other Poems Not many weeks ago the manuscript of a young English officer, written in pencil and found among his effects after his gallant death, was placed in my hands. Now it is my privilege, thanks to the courtesy of my friend, Mr. George H. Doran, to write a few words of introduction for this same manuscript that is about to be given to the world. As the reader meets the personality of Captain T. P. Cameron Wilson, through his published philosophy of Life, he will be glad to know that every record concerning him vividly characterizes the impression which the reading of his last penciled words gives - the impression of a most unusual spirit who met death, as he lived life, gladly and well. Captain Wilson, the son of the Vicar of Little Eaton, enlisted as a private in the Grenadier Guards in 1914, and later received his commission in the Sherwood Foresters. He fell in action on March 24, 1918. Harold Begbie, writing of him, pays this tribute to the poet and the man: "There was a glorious man among our glorious dead in France, a man who loved boys, was loved by boys, and by many was deemed the ideal schoolmaster.
