“This song of Tiadatha is nothing less than a little English epic of the war.”
The Morning Post.
“Every Army officer and ex-officer will hail Tiadatha as a brother. ‘The Song of Tiadatha’ is one of the happiest skits born of the war.”
Evening Standard.
SONGS OUT OF EXILE: Being Verses of African Sunshine and Shadow and Black Man’s Twilight. By Cullen Gouldsbury. Cloth, 4/6 net. Fourth Impression.
“The ‘Rhodesian Rhymes’ won for their author the journalistic title of ‘The Kipling of South Africa,’ and indeed his work is full of crisp vigour, fire and colour. It is brutal in parts; but its brutality is strong and realistic. Mr. Gouldsbury has spent many years in Rhodesia, and its life, black and white, is thoroughly familiar to him.... Mr. Gouldsbury is undoubtedly a writer to be reckoned with. His verse is informed by knowledge of wild life in open places and a measure of genuine feeling which make it real poetry.”
Standard.
FROM THE OUTPOSTS. By Cullen Gouldsbury. Cloth, 4/6 net. Third Impression.
“Mr. Cullen Gouldsbury’s collections of his verses are always welcome, and the last, ‘From the Outposts’ is as good as its predecessor. No one has quite Mr. Gouldsbury’s experience and gift.”
Spectator.
