Every time I visit this place, it gives me a captivating experience. "Where have all the flowers gone?" sang Pete Seger in 1961... "Where have all the soldiers gone", "where have all the graveyards gone..."... when will we ever learn...
After this visit I headed toward the WWI Book Fair in 'Passchendaele', only 2 km further, where hundreds of books of The Great War were exhibited.
Between all this books my eye fell on "World War I in cartoons" by cartoon historian Mark Bryant.
A cartoon book amongst all this serious war books? Yes, but this is a 'serious' cartoon book. It is a direct and truly authoritative history of the Great War, thoroughly researched and attractively presented. In a next article I will describe this magnificent book.

This is where the book fair was located...
Lots of military books...
