Written in 1916, as the names of Ypres and Dixmude filled the newspapers, this book recalls the Flemish towns as the American artist knew them before the invasion. Edwards describes Malines and its carillons, the towers of Ypres, Dixmude, Commines, Bergues and Alost, and the cheerful people who lived beneath them.
An elegy for a lost landscape of bells and belfries, for lovers of Flanders and of old architecture. Download the free EPUB.
