After he died, his relatives found several old computer disks with lots of un-published jokes, poems, short stories, articles and personal memories from his much-traveled life. These were finally converted to a modern format and published. There are 79 poems, 15 haiku (a form of Japanese poems),18 short stories (fiction) and 11 personal memories including school days during World War I, the 1918 Chilwell Depot explosion, founding of the first Attenborough Football Club, his service in India and a trip to the American Wild West. The poems include \"A Nottingham Monologue\", a ten verse poem written in the Nottingham dialect. Percy was an expert on Gypsies and the American Wild West. This is his eighth book. It was published posthumously.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePercy Barsby (1906-2000) was an accomplished author, painter, poet and journalist from Attenborough, Nottingham, England.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 218\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.46 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 30, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48704711819513,"sku":"9780982235522","price":13.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/iEe62pmu4y9780982235522.webp?v=1784817378","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/a-collection-of-poems-jokes-short-stories-and-personal-memories-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
