Cobbett's Field

Cobbett's Field was first published for private circulation in 1997. Since then it has been through four revisions. With the present edition (for general sale) five poems have been omitted since they are now available in R¿ckblick II . However, there is some duplication in the case of four poems which also appear in War (2007). Moreover, a handful of poems with a war theme appear here that are not included in War . Ten poems have been added to the original content. There has also been some readjustment to the order of presentation. John Vetterlein, Orkney, 2007
