Echoes of Armageddon, 1914-1918 - An American's Search into the Lives and Deaths of Eight British Soldiers in World War One (Paperback)

Echoes of Armageddon, 1914-1918 relates the gripping story of eight totally anonymous British officers and men who fought under appalling trench warfare conditions and did not survive this conflict. Their medals have been in the author's collection for many years and are named to each recipient. This scant information served as his starting point for attempting to recreate these soldiers' lives and the circumstances of their deaths. This unique departure from the norm enables the reader to link with the author as he travels through Great Britain, France, Flanders and elsewhere in his relentless search for the facts on these fighting men's experiences in battle. This book also tells of certain political events and social conditions in Great Britain that affected these soldiers' families as well as a number of major happenings in both allied and enemy countries throughout the world that led to an estimated eleven million war dead worldwide. The author has made every effort to provide accurate dates for each incident mentioned throughout this book by relying on The Times Diary & Index of the War 1914-1918, a now very rare volume that lists newspaper headlines for every major event over the course of this entire conflict.
