Pictures very often speak louder than words, and the ‘Images of War’ series of books is a fine idea. It is like watching a well made documentary unfold before your eyes. The photographs and their reproduction is superb, moreover John Sheen’s text is just right, giving you the context of the photographs, but never swamping them with too many words... The whole book is a superb piece of work, highly recommended.

Destructive Music

This simply amazing collection of rare photos serves to illustrate the carnage of battle throughout the three critical months of 1918: March, April and May. Also included are a number of group photos of some of the units involved as well as the memoriam cards of individuals who fell or died of wounds. Being a dog lover I could not help but be moved by the image if a German Shepherd having its injured paw bandaged at the ‘Hund Lazarett’ close to the front lines. There is an absolute wealth of great images here, well worth a look.
An amazing archive, 10/10.
