Thirteen Years After: The Story of the Old Front Revisited (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes you on a poignant journey through the battlefields of Flanders, revisiting the sites of some of the First World War's most brutal and defining conflicts. Through vivid descriptions and personal anecdotes, the author paints a picture of the Salient as it was during the war ΓΆβ β a desolate landscape of mud, shell craters, and barbed wire, haunted by the ghosts of fallen soldiers. But the author also reveals the Salient's remarkable transformation in the years since the war. Farms and villages have been rebuilt, fields are once again green and fertile, and children play in the streets. Yet, reminders of the war's devastation remain: pillboxes dot the landscape, memorials stand sentinel over countless graves, and the Menin Gate whispers the names of the fallen. This book is more than just a travelogue; it is a meditation on the enduring legacy of war. It explores the themes of loss, resilience, and the power of human spirit. By juxtaposing the Salient's wartime horrors with its present-day tranquility, the author underscores the enduring impact of conflict on both the land and its people. Ultimately, this book serves as a powerful testament to the human capacity for both destruction and renewal.
