''Songs from the Trenches: The Soul of the A.E.F.'' is a book written by Herbert Adams Gibbons. It is a collection of poems and songs that were written by American soldiers during World War I, also known as the American Expeditionary Forces (A.E.F.). The book includes over 150 poems and songs that were written by soldiers in the trenches, on the march, and in the hospitals. The poems and songs cover a wide range of emotions and experiences, from the horrors of war to the camaraderie and humor that helped soldiers endure. The book also includes an introduction by Gibbons, who was a war correspondent during World War I, and a brief history of the A.E.F. The poems and songs in ''Songs from the Trenches'' provide a unique insight into the experiences of American soldiers during World War I and serve as a testament to their bravery and sacrifice.1893. A collection of verses by American Soldiers in France chosen and brought together by Gibbons from the thousand submitted in the New York Herald�������s Literary Competition. But, the book is more than a collection of poems. It is a message from the American soldiers abroad to the home folks, written on the decks of transports, in French villages, in muddy camps, in the trenches, beside cannon or camion, in hospitals. Each writer speaks for thousands of his fellows. And the form of the message is that which youth loves to employ in framing the thoughts of the heart.
