Tributes to the Scarlet Riders : An anthology of Mountie poems

This engaging anthology of verse, compiled by Edgar Kuhn, reflects the early history and experiences of the NWMP, RNWMP, and RCMP from the 1880s to the present.

Written from various points of view, these very readable poems portray the heroism, emotions, hardships, dedication, and loyalty of those who have served in Canada's national police forces.

Be they humorous or poignant, simple or formal, Kuhn's selections reflect the moods and adventures of Arctic survivors, plains horsemen, vulnerable trainees, and witty veterans.

Collectively they will entertain anyone who has ever been, or known, a Mountie.
