Abandoned Places of World War I by Neil Faulkner

4.0

This is a beautiful and haunting coffee table book of abandoned WWI relics. The book features large full-color pictures showing the various locations. It is divided by location with sections like France, Belgium, U.K., Central Europe Eastern Europe, Balkans Africa and Middle East, and North America and the Pacific. I appreciate that the book acknowledges the affect that the war had outside of Europe as most people tend to overlook this. My favorite pictures were the aerial shots showing the physical scars of the war on the land. They reminded me of being in Normandy and being deeply impacted by the bomb divots left during WWII. This book would make a great gift to any WWI buff.
