Published soon after the Armistice, this guide explains the low hills and canals of the Ypres basin and the battles fought over them: the German offensive of 1914, the gas attacks of 1915, the Allied offensive of 1917, the fighting for the Flanders hills, the last German attack and the victory of 1918. A driving tour follows across shell-cratered ground.
