| - Where the Dead Men Lie, and Other Poems (1897) is the first and only collection of poems by Australian poet Barcroft Boake. Edited by A. G. Stephens, it was released in hardback by Angus and Robertson in 1897, five years after the poet's death. It contains an introduction by the editor, an introductory poem by Will H. Ogilvie, and features the poet's major works "Jack's Last Muster", "Jim's Whip" and "Where the Dead Men Lie". The original collection includes 33 poems by the author that are reprinted from various sources, though they mainly originally appeared in The Bulletin. In his introduction to the volume, editor Stephens posed the question: "Should Boake be treated from a literary standpoint or from a personal standpoint — as poet or as man and poet?" Stephens chose the personal, later noting "...Boake's least remarkable compositions, with two or three exceptions, are as characteristic of Australia and of himself as are the most remarkable. So, instead of trying to exalt the Poet by his work, I have tried rather to show the Man in his poetry." Stephens concluded the volume by including his memoir of the poet. (en)
