In recent years many first-hand memories of the World Wars and
other significant events of the twentieth century have been
captured in print and on film. Though extensive, these are only a
fraction of the collective memory of the people affected. Most of
those involved have now gone, but their memories live on through
the people they have told - their families and their friends - but
this generation too will pass and with them the wealth of stories
they hold on to. As Memories Fade will record these stories in a
series of books. Inevitably, many of these stories will be based on
wartime experiences, but the series extends into other areas of
human endeavour. Many are told by their descendants based on
memories and research into surviving documentation others are told
by the individuals themselves or by those who knew them. These
stories are more than extended anecdotes and have a broader theme
relevant to a wider audience. There is a balance of stories about
both rich and poor, male and female. Some stories may be about
prominent people, but many are about ordinary people in
extraordinary circumstances.
