Trenches

by Frederic Manning

The Trenches is a collection of poems by Frederic Manning, an Australian poet who served in the British Army during the First World War. The poems are based on Manning's experiences in the trenches, and they offer a vivid and unflinching account of the horrors of war. Manning's poems are full of vivid imagery and powerful language, and they capture the physical and emotional toll that the war took on the soldiers who fought in it.
