The poems have been penned by the likes of Kipling, Cowan & the Rev. Pakeham-Walsh, however the majority are from ordinary men at home and at the Front, women and even children.

The sketches include satirical depictions and tabloid cartoons, often poking fun at key politicians and world events of the period including the Home Rule Crisis in Ireland, the Suffragette movement and the allies.
