War's Embers

War's Embers is a collection of poems by Ivor Gurney, an English poet from Gloucestershire, written in the aftermath of World War I. Drawing from his personal experiences as a soldier on the Western Front, Gurney's work reflects his emotions and the harsh realities of war, including the trauma of being wounded by a mustard gas attack. Published in the early 20th century, this collection is notable for its poignant exploration of loss and the psychological impact of conflict.
