Notes
In this book the Author brings together the extraordinary accounts of those who dedicated their lives to the search for the missing of, mainly, the Western Front. The story set out in the book is comprehensive; as well as telling the story of the "searchers", the author describes the other aspects of the putting together of the "remembrance" culture which has survived through to modern times. Thus the book deals with the subject in a comprehensive way, and is one which should always have been told, giving - as it does - a greater picture and knowledge of the sacrifices made in the war.
