A Guide to the Cemeteries &
Memorials to the 'Missing' in
|
In 1929 a book called 'The Silent Cities' was published. Compiled by the Imperial War Graves Commission & Sydney C. Hurst, it contained 959 photographs of war cemeteries on the Western Front. Its aim was to be a guide to the relatives and friends of the fallen in the Great War who would wish to make the pilgrimage to France & Flanders and visit the burial places of the missing. It is the aim of this
site to list (both with details & photographs) all of
the cemeteries and war memorials that are located in and around
the Western Front of 1914 -1918. Using the medium of the Internet
this site aims to bring these "Silent Cities" to
your awareness. |
