This book unites under one cover G. K. Chesterton's first three books of poetry: Greybeards at Play (1900), The Wild Knight and Other Poems (1900) and The Ballad of the White Horse (1911). All text and illustrations are based on the first UK editions. Poet W. H. Auden noted that the first book "contains some of the best pure nonsense verse in English."
