Debt of Honor: The Battle of the Somme and the Creation of the Thiepval Memorial to the Missing of the Somme

By: Sloan, Stuart

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. During the summer of 1916, battle raged in the once-tranquil fields and towns along the Somme River in northern France. The vast scale of the battle and the catastrophic loss of life meant that hundreds of thousands of the fallen lay in no known grave. Today, with peace restored, the towering Thiepval Memorial to the Missing of the Somme records the lost.
