Parodies on Paradise

Stanford, Calif.: James Ladd Delkin, (1945). Small 4to. Wraps. 22 p. "First Edition" Very good. [52909]

"First mimeographed in the islands under the title of 'Bamboo Ballads, by Bos'n Ben.' Only 'The Jungle' has been added. Special value in this original booklet lies in the fact that it was the first volume to be published from the Calvertville, Sesapi, Tulagi and Macambo area where the first American fighting men to set foot on enemy-occupied territory in this war landed, August 7, 1942. The verses were written while the writer was the senior Chief Petty Officer of the original Motor Boat Base One"
