Originally published in 1919, Some British Ballads is a collection of verses and narratives illustrated by Arthur Rackham. Many of the songs are taken from Francis James Child’s compilation; The English and Scottish Popular Ballads, which he collected during the second half of the nineteenth century. This pioneering study into British folklore and song is a true gem, and contains the rhymes of ‘Clerk Colvill’, ‘The Lass of Lochroyan’, ‘The Twa Corbies’, ‘Get up and Bar the Door’, ‘The Old Cloak’, ‘Proud Lady Margaret’, and many more. This edition of Some British Ballads contains a series of dazzling colour and black-and-white illustrations – by a master of the craft; Arthur Rackham (1867-1939). One of the most celebrated painters of the British Golden Age of Illustration (which encompassed the years from 1850 until the start of the First World War), Rackham’s artistry is quite simply, unparalleled. Throughout his career, he developed a unique style, combining haunting humour with dream-like romance. Presented alongside the text, his illustrations further refine and elucidate the wonderful ballads of times gone by. Pook Press celebrates the great ‘Golden Age of Illustration‘ in children’s literature – a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration from the 1880s to the 1930s. Our collection showcases classic fairy tales, children’s stories, and the work of some of the most celebrated artists, illustrators and authors.

The folk-lore element is never wanting at Christmas time; and we have it at its best in the noble book of British Ballads, illustrated by Arthur Rackham. Everybody knows the drawings in color with which Mr. Rackham is wont to embellish the classics; and he embellishes all that he touches, so that if the text be not a classic it becomes so in his hands. This new volume is, if possible, more exquisite than those preceding. It is all that heart could wish, -a book to be pored upon beside the fire, and read and read again. The fortunate recipient will find herself saying over and over, Binnorie, oh, Binnoriel as she turns the toast for breakfast, and This ae night, this ae night, Every night and all, as she draws the shades and lights the lamps at evening. And she will see the pictures with her inward eye at all times and seasons as the year goes on. --The Bookman, Vol.

The Barrack-Room Ballads are a series of songs and poems by Rudyard Kipling, dealing with the late-Victorian British Army and mostly written in a vernacular dialect. The series contains some of Kipling's most well-known work, including the poems "Gunga Din," "Tommy," "Mandalay," and "Danny Deever," helping consolidate his early fame as a poet.The first poems were published in the Scots Observer in the first half of 1890, and collected in Barrack-Room Ballads and Other Verses in 1892. Kipling later returned to the theme in a group of poems collected in The Seven Seas under the same title. A third group of vernacular Army poems from the Boer War, titled "Service Songs" and published in The Five Nations (1903), can be considered part of the Ballads, as can a number of other uncollected pieces.PoemsWhile two volumes of Kipling's poems are clearly labelled as "Barrack-Room Ballads," identifying which poems should be grouped in this way can be complex.The main collection of the Ballads was published in the 1890s, in two volumes: Barrack-Room Ballads and Other Verses (1892, the first major publishing success for Methuen) and The Seven Seas (1896), sometimes published as The Seven Seas and Further Barrack-Room Ballads. In both books, they were collected into a specific section set aside from the other poems, and can be easily identified. (Barrack-Room Ballads and Other Verses has an introductory poem ("To T.A.") in Kipling's own voice, which is strictly not part of the set but is often collected with them.)A third group of poems, published in 1903 in The Five Nations, continued the theme of military vernacular ballads; while they were titled "Service Songs," they fit well with the themes of the earlier ballads and are clearly connected.Charles Carrington produced the first comprehensive volume of the Ballads in 1973, mainly drawn from these three collections but including five additional pieces not previously collected under the title. Three of these date from the same period: an untitled vernacular poem ("My girl she gave me the go onst") taken from a short story, The Courting of Dinah Shadd, in Life's Handicap (1891); Bobs (1892 or 1898), [citation needed] a poem praising Lord Roberts; and The Absent-Minded Beggar (1899), a poem written to raise funds for the families of soldiers called up for the Boer War.The remaining two date from the First World War; Carrington considered Epitaphs of the War, written in a first-person style, and Gethsemane, also in a soldier's voice, to meet his definition. Both were published in The Years Between (1919). Kipling wrote profusely on military themes during the war, but often from a more detached perspective than the first-person vernacular he had previously adopted.Finally, there are some confusingly captioned pieces. Many of Kipling's short stories were introduced with a short fragment of poetry, sometimes from an existing poem and sometimes an incidental new piece. These were often identified "A Barrack-Room Ballad," though not all the poems they were taken from would otherwise be collected or classed this way. This includes pieces such as the introductory poem to My Lord the Elephant (from Many Inventions, 1899), later collected in Songs from Books but not identified as a Ballad. It is not clear if these were deliberately omitted by Carrington or if he explicitly chose not to include them................Joseph Rudyard Kipling (30 December 1865
