Excerpt from PoemsHE poems in this book are all that remains of T one who had hardly begun his work.in literature when he had to leave it for the grimmer tasks of the European war. Many of the poems included here were written at the front, some even in the trenches on the battlefield whence the author did not return. Hence there are no doubt some things in these verses which the author, if he had lived longer, would have liked to alter. But there is little either in matter or in manner which he would have been forced to change.Donald Fredric Goold Johnson was a son of the Manse. Born on March 6th, 1890, he received his school education from twelve to seventeen at Cater ham. His home was at Saffron Walden and it is perhaps not too fanciful to detect in his love for describing quiet rural scenes with streams and wood land the in¿uence of the landscape which he knew most intimately, even though the scene professes to be laid in Thessaly or some other classical land which, except in imagination, he was never destined to see.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
