Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Exceptionally rare first edition of this pamphlet honoring every British soldier who died in World War I. Oblong octavo, original publisher's pictorial wrappers, illustrated with black and white drawings of the cemeteries and memorials as they will appear completed throughout. In near fine condition. Illustrated by Mr. Douglas Macpherson. Housed in a custom red portfolio with gilt titles to the front panel and string ties. Rudyard Kipling’s The Graves of the Fallen (1919), written for the Imperial War Graves Commission, articulates the moral and aesthetic vision behind the design and commemoration of British and Commonwealth soldiers’ graves after World War I.
