Further message from John:

"The Stars" is an anthology of poems which were collected and selected for the Boston and North Cambridgeshire branch of the Burma Star Association by H E ("Sandy") Williams. The collection of 118 poems is a very moving testament to those who fought, sometimes died and were often forgotten in the Burmese jungles. Includes an address given by Rev J F Titus Oates in St Dominic's Church, Washington on 18th October 1981 on the occasion of the dedication of the Standard of the first American branch of the Burma Star Association. The book has 144 pages, costs £11.95 including postage and can be obtained from Richard Kay Publications, 80 Sleaford Road, Boston, Lincolnshire PE21 8EU, tel: 01205 353231. This is soldiers writing poetry, not poets writing about soldiers.
