Présentation de l'éditeur

An when the war began, we chased the bold A fghan, An we made the bloomin Ghazi for to flee, boys O! An we marched into Ka3#, an we tuk the Balar I ssar An we taught em to respec the British Soldier. Barrack Room Ballad. MULVANEY, Ortheris and Learoyd are Privates in BC ompany of a Line Regiment, and personal friends of mine. Collectively I think, but am not certain, they are the worst men in the regiment so far as genial blackguardism goes. They told me this story in the Umballa Refreshment Room while we were waiting for an uptrain. I supplied the beer. The tale was cheap at a gallon and a half. All men know Lord Benira Trig. He is a Duke, or an Earl, or something unofficial; also a Peer; also a Globe-trotter. On all three counts, as Ortheris says, edidn tdeserve no consideration.
