After the First World War, thousands of men who had fought on the battlefields were drawn back to the Western Front, seeking to pay homage to their past and witness the peace that had eluded them during their wartime experiences. The Pilgrimage to the Western Front is a collection of first-hand accounts by veterans who retrace their wartime footsteps and stand again at the scenes of history's bloodiest conflict. These fascinating reports reveal the discoveries they made on their return, as well as their reflections and memories of the places still healing from the devastation of the war years.
The veterans' emotions are palpable as they revisit old haunts, meet former friends and foes, and confront their past. Illustrated with remarkable archive images from the collection of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, this volume features fifty personal stories spanning each of the interwar years.
The Pilgrimage to the Western Front offers a poignant glimpse into a world recovering from one great conflict and edging towards another. It serves as a reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of remembrance and healing. As we reflect on the sacrifices made by those who served on the front lines, we are compelled to honor their memory and work towards a future that is built on peace and understanding.
