Up The Line To Death

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Up The Line To Death: The War Poets 1914-1918 is a poetry anthology edited by Brian Gardner, and first published in 1964. It was a significant revisiting of the tradition of the war poet, writing in English, though by no means the only such collection; and was backed up by strong biographical research on the poets included. Those were mainly British and Irish combattants of World War I; but there are also Australian, Canadian and Americans poets. Some contemporary poems by major poets not involved in the fighting are also given.
