Indispensible,
By A Customer
This review is from: Major and Mrs.Holt's Battlefield Guide to Ypres Salient (Major & Mrs Holt's Battlefield Guide) (Paperback)
This is an invaluable guide for anyone looking to tour the battlefields of Flanders. A useful, if brief, intoduction to the history of the battles, bags of practical suggestions, a useful but complicated pull-out map. Great colour photography, with some well-planned itineries.

Don't go without it!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Major and Mrs.Holt's Battlefield Guide to Ypres Salient (Major & Mrs Holt's Battlefield Guide) (Paperback)
An absolute must for anyone visiting or wishing to learn more about the salient. The 'silent cities' seem completely out of place in such a tranquil environment. This book places all the events in context as well as providing 3 wonderfully thought out and worthwhile itineries. Wow!
