Title: American Soldier Ballads: in the language of an army man

Author: Frank B Camp

Publisher: Consolidated Book Publishers

DESCRIPTION

Pocket-sized hardback, 160 pages, illustrated with photographs provided by the US forces and Life magazine and line drawings within the text.

A previous volume, with the same title, was published in 1917, but it is not clear whether this one includes any of the contents of the original - either in original or updated form. As the Foreword explains, the 'ballads', rather than being sung (there is no music) are written to be declaimed to a barrack-room audience.

About Julian House

At its foundation, Julian House was set up to offer direct support to some of the most marginalised people in society – the homeless. Initially this was limited to offering food and shelter. Over time other projects and services have been developed which not only address the symptoms of homelessness but also the underlying reasons why men and women are forced onto the streets. Indeed, projects such a our social enterprises are targeted at preventing people becoming homeless by engaging them in meaningful activities, training and preparation for employment. The work is often challenging and our staff and volunteers work under considerable pressure to achieve incredible outcomes.

We currently have six charity shops; two in Bath; one in Frome; one in Chippenham; one in Thornbury and our newest one in Trowbridge, all offering good quality items at great prices. We pride ourselves on offering a great service in a well presented customer friendly environment. Our shops and eBay sales play an important role funding our front line services. 100% of your eBay purchase goes towards our work.
