Reseña del libro "Debt of Honour: Winchester City's First World War Dead"

Winchester city men served and died in all three services and in all theatres of war in the Great War. They joined a wide range of units from home and the colonies. However they have no engraved memorial of their names, unlike those from other towns and villages in Hampshire. Why? Through a brief introduction and reconstructed biographies under their names and their Winchester addresses this book commemorates their sacrifice, repaying a 'Debt of Honour' to these forgotten men a century on. The memorial biographies are accompanied by a reprint of the War Service Register for the city of Winchester which was a record published by the city in 1921 and believed to be a full record of those who served and died.
