Sonnets To The Unknown Soldier (1941) By Douglas Stewart
Douglas Stewart (1913-1985), a New Zealander by birth and an Australian by choice, was a poet, verse dramatist, balladist and short story writer.
Stewart was born in New Zealand; his writing and editorial career saw him living and working in London and Sydney, where he settled in the late 1930’s. The impact of the war can be seen in some of his publications in the 1940s, including Elegy for an Airman (1940), published in a limited edition illustrated by Norman Lindsay, as well as a collection of war poems, Sonnets to the Unknown Soldier (1941). The latter collection was Stewart's first with Angus & Robertson, who would become his regular publishers.
