Memorials of the Late Civil Service Rifle Regiment (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A witty, satirical portrait of a colonial era regiment told through verse and dreamlike scenes.

This book presents a humorous, editorial voice that mixes verse, mock-heroic storytelling, and social commentary. Set against a backdrop of early Dominion politics, it uses a dream-vision to poke at military life, officialdom, and public opinion, while staying grounded in the era’s style and voice. The result is a blend of light parody and historical snapshot that reads like a lively column from a past age.

• A dream-driven narrative that playfully reimagines officers, adjutants, and commoners.


• Satirical depictions of government, civil service life, and public discourse.


• Verse and prose that mimic 19th-century forms with modern accessibility.


• A window into how humor and critique traveled through period newspapers and correspondence.
