During the course of 1914 and 1915 some of the most celebrated poets of the day published their work The Times. These included Kipling Laurence Binyon 1869-1943 de La Mare Noyes et al. This special supplement collected these poems illustrated with evocative line drawings. This issue preceded the election of the Lloyd George cabinet of 1916 and Northcliffe's appointment as Director of Propaganda. Although undoubtedly patriotic in its inspiration this supplement is less shrill in tone than its contemporary Northcliffe's Overseas Daily Mail which expressed in no uncertain terms its mission to recruit young men from the Dominions into the sorry ranks of those bogged down on the Western Front.
