Hardback. "Four Page Poetry Broadside. 19 x 28 cm. Published in London by The Poetry Bookshop. Contains 6 black, white and blue illustrations of the World War One pursuit of two German ships; the Goeben and the Breslau, by the Gloster. The German ships evaded the British fleet and arrived in Constantinople, where the Goeben was made flagship of the Ottoman navy.
