Summary

The narrator pledges to donate 50% of his proceeds to The Royal British Legion Poppy Day Appeal – please support. Rupert Brooke’s poem, The Soldier, contains perhaps the most famous line of any poem of The Great War: “ . . . That there’s some corner of a foreign field that is for ever England . . . “
