A new - to me - WW1 Soldier Poet

By a very strange coincidence I found out about a poet I had not heard of before - a British soldier poet called Rex Freston who was killed in 1916.

Dave Coleman has an excellent weblog in which he explains the whole story so over to Dave:

with many thanks to Dean Johnson and to Dave Coleman for getting in touch with me.
