Soldiers' songs of the First World War The songs of the First World War represent the ascendancy of the human spirit over the cruel inhumanity of the war. They still possess a haunting power - by turns funny, cynical, angry and wistful. Max Arthur has collected together the lyrics of nearly 100 of the songs that the soldiers sang on the march, in the trenches and in their rare moments of rest. They include "Keep the Home Fires Burning", "Good-bye-ee!", "Take Me Back to Dear Old Blighty", and many more. Each song is annotated by the author, giving the historical background and tune wherever possible.
