TOM MORGAN'S YPRES BATTLEFIELD GUIDE

In 1996 I produced the "Somme Diary" which was the first group of articles to appear on this site.  That was to coincide with the 80th anniversary of the Battles of the Somme in 1916.  To mark the 80th anniversary of the 3rd Battle of Ypres in 1917, I planned a similar series about Ypres, to appear in 1997.

It's over five years late, but here it is, in monthly instalments.
