On the Western Front during the First World War, 490 men won the British Empire's highest award for gallantry, the Victoria Cross. A companion for any visitor to the First World War battlefields in France and Flanders, this reference book lists every VC recipient from 1914 to 1918 in alphabetical order.
GERALD GLIDDON is a leading authority on First World War history and his Somme 1916 has become an indispensable reference guide for anyone wanting to understand this theatre of warfare. He has written extensively on the period, including: eight volumes of the VCs of the First World War series, The Aristocracy and the Great War, co-author with Tim Skelton of Lutyens and the Great War and editor of For Valour: Canadians and the Victoria Cross in the Great War.
