The Collected Verse of Robert Service

This collection of verse contains Service's famous story collections "Songs of a Sourdough," published in 1907 to wide success, "Ballads of a Cheechako," "Rhymes of a Rolling Stone," "Rhymes of a Red Cross Man," and "Ballads of a Bohemian." Service favored simple, rhythmic ballads that allowed the reader to get lost in the colorful descriptions and exciting tales of his imagination, which were inspired by his real world experiences.
