By: Robert Service, Harriett Shlossberg

Narrated by: Mike Puttonen

This new and revised edition of poems about the men and women of the North features the most loved ballads by Robert Service, and is narrated by Michael Puttonen. While living in Whitehorse, Robert Service wrote The Cremation of Sam McGee, and other well-known poems. He wrote and published into his mid-eighties. He was quoted as saying, "I just go for a walk and come back with a poem in my pocket."

Gaiety, humor, nostalgia, and pathos fill this entire book, along with the genuine Service ring of virility which has made his verse loved throughout the English reading world.
