The Salamander Oasis Trust
The Salamander Oasis Trust was set up after the Second World War to collect, edit and publish poems written by servicemen of all nations during the 1939-1945 War. Since its inception, the Trust has collected more than 17,000 poems and published five anthologies of poetry.
Some sample poems from the Trust collections are reproduced on these pages, along with news and essays about the Trust.
Victor Selwyn's essay, Looking Back at Oasis gives the background to the Oasis story.
