Remembered

Keep a look out for this book, which is now appearing as a clearance item in bookstores: 

Remembered: The History of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission

Remembered is described by the publishers as:
A celebration of the human story behind the extraordinary and diligent efforts of those who felt passionately that the fallen of the Great War should be remembered in perpetuity and with a dignity that had not hitherto been accorded to the ordinary soldier. So successful were the early commissioners in creating a lasting and fitting memorial, where men and women were buried side by side regardless of race, rank or creed that the same design was followed for the dead of the Second World War. Those who have no known grave are commemorated on the Commission’s memorials to the missing throughout the world and treated with equal respect.
