Supreme Sacrifice: A Small Village and the Great War
The war memorial in the Scottish village of Bridge of Weir lists 72 men who died during the First World War. Their deaths occurred in almost every theatre of the war. They were awarded very few medals and their military careers were not remarkable – except in the important respect that they, like countless other peaceful civilians, answered their country's call in its time of need.
available as both paperback and kindle versions. |
