This compendium deals with the lives of a selection of soldiers from the First World War who never returned home. The narrative is structured chronologically and covers both significant battles and lesser-known actions on the Western Front, including Mons, Ypres, the Somme, Loos and Amiens. Each description is accompanied by a portrait and additional images that confront the reader with some of those who fought and died in the trenches and fields of Western Europe, culminating in a poignant final tribute to their service. Supplemented by black-and-white archive photographs and colourised images, this book is an invaluable guide for anyone interested in the human stories of the First World War, as well as for visitors to battlefields.
