In Flanders Fields: 100 Years: Writing on War, Loss and Remembrance

A beautiful book, one that Americans ought to read. How much we have forgotten the trauma. pain and death of WWI!

I was deeply moved by most of these pieces. I didn't know much about John McRae other than the poem. I particularly found George Elliott Clarke's Diary excerpts to be vivid memories. Wade Davis's details could be numbing to some readers, but I found the piece to be masterful. More pictures and maps would have earned 5 stars from me. I recommend this collection to readers wanting a very human view of WWI.

Excellent variety of writings centered on "Flander's Field" poem. Quality graphic design.

I forgot how stirring poetry from world war I could be.

Delayed reply to post! Thanks - what an amazing book. Just started it and the tears are flowing. What a beautiful tribute, learning lots of history (which I love) about the poem. A MUST READ!!!

Bought for a friend who is military. She loved it.

Bought as present for my father and he enjoyed it very much. Beautiful cover.

Interesting views on how the poem has been used through the years
