Recommended in the Foreign Office Ministerial Reading List - Summer
2014 It does what it says on the tin, introducing the reader to the
nuances of planning an itinerary for the Somme or the Ypres
Salient. A comprehensive beginners guide. - Despatches (The Guild
of Battlefield Guides) History teacher Gareth Hughes has compiled a
clear, easy-to-read starter guide to the Western Front battlefields
for teachers leading school parties, as well as the self-touring
novice. He gives essential tour 'highlights' with suggestions for
lunch stops, free time ideas and other helpful information for you
to get the best out of your battlefield trip and be inspired to
trace your own relatives' war stories. - Family Tree Magazine The
book is well written and packed with useful information and some
good supporting images - WWI Centenary This splendid book, released
to coincide with the centenary of the war, will be invaluable to
those visiting the battlefields, sites, museums, memorials and
cemeteries of France and Belgium. It is intended for those planning
and leading school groups and similar parties but is also ideal for
individual/family visitors. Rather than list every site etc it
provides realistic itineraries to the best places in the two major
areas of the Somme and Ypres. Even these are flexible to allow
party leaders suitable discretion. The author provides helpful
information for each site such as its context in the War, visitor
orientation, the narrative (the essential facts to engage, inform
and entertain), suggested activity and relevant photos and maps.
This combines to make every visit of maximum benefit and interest
and yet reduce the workload of the party leaders. There are also
valuable tips for lunch breaks, free time ideas and other helpful
pointers.
