Some of Westbrooks poems were written during the Gallipoli campaign and many of these appear in his selections, Anzac and After (1916) and Echoes of Anzac (1930). Westbrook evidently claimed not to have written a line of poetry prior to enlisting, however whether this was in fact the case remains a matter of speculation. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9153
