Another decent collection of poetry by Service. He may not be seen in literary circles as a fine poet, but these homes are definitely aimed towards the popular reader, which Service refers to in his poems.
I like the following poems:
A rolling Stone
The land of beyond
Sunshine
Cheer
Nostomaniac
Just think!
The lunger
The mountain and the lake
Death in the Arctic
While the bannock bakes
The Mother
The Dreamer
The Squaw Man
I'm scared of it all
The song of the camp-fire
The Ghosts
Good-bye, little cabin
… (altro)

I'm not usually a poetry reader, but I enjoyed this collection of tales. It was fun and exciting to read about the tales of the Yukon. I would have to say that my favorite poem in the collection was "The Cremation of Sam McGee"

The Cremation of Sam McGee is one of my favorites. Robert Service had a gift of telling a story about the cold cold North. I usually reread every other year & reacquaint myself.
