This was an affordably priced limited first edition, a labor of love. It is the best reference work on Joyce Kilmer I have seen, a must for any serious student of Kilmer's work. It is lavishly illustrated with photographs. I keep a copy by my computer among the books to grab when people email me with questions about my grandfather.
I have several signed copies on hand for sale. Please email customer service. For your convenience, you may use the order form.

Poems, Essays and Letters; Joyce Kilmer; Hardcover. OP*
This collection was compiled and edited by Robert Cortes Holliday. Joyce Kilmer's essays and letters are truly delightful; much better than his poetry (in my opinion) and more appealing to the modern ear. Robert Cortes Holliday's biography of the poet, which forms part of this collection, is definitive. (That was true when I first wrote it. John Covell's new biography is more scholarly and more complete.) Amazon Alibris

The Fighting 69th (1940) Video **
This film portrays Joyce Kilmer's regiment, with Jeffrey Lynn playing the part of Joyce himself (a minor role). His recitation of Kilmer's "Prayer of a Soldier in France" is very moving.

Recordings
Many recordings have been made. Disney recently re-released it's animated version of the song:
Melody Time Video Cassette **
Contents: "Once Upon a Wintertime," "Bumble Boogie," "Johnny Appleseed," "Little Toot," "Trees," "Blame It on the Samba," "Pecos Bill"
The animation for "Trees" is very beautifully done. I'm not a fan of Fred Waring, who arranged the music for this segment.

Paul Robeson, who was honored by Joyce Kilmer's mother during his days as a student at Rutgers, made the most powerful and moving recording of the Kilmer/Rasbach song. It is readily available; take your pick according to which of his other marvelous songs you want for your collection! These are re-mastered from Vinyls, so expect to hear the typical noises.

I have not heard John Charles Thomas performing "Trees." Brad Jenks wrote:It is safe to assume that if John Charles Thomas recorded anything, it is either the definitive recording of it or it is the most fun version ever cut into disc. The man was unjustly forgotten. Those who do know of him would do well to promote this man who showed with every single note, the joy of singing.Abide with me Audio CD **

Various Artists. The poem "Trees" is set to music and performed by Robert Hoyt. This version may be more appealing to children, teens, and lovers of folk music. Hoyt added a second verse that refers to Gaia.
NAPRA Trade Journal, Spring, 1996: Musician (6/97, p.86) - "... Nice mix of poets, folkies and rockers, some of whom are earnest and some of whom let you off the hook with humor, lest the subject matter get too depressing to contemplate..."
