Recenzii
This book makes a valuable contribution to the literature on the meaning and politics of commemorative processes after the First World War ... Battlefield Tourism is a welcome addition to the important 'Legacy of the Great War' series under the general editorship of Jay Winter.
Battlefield Tourism is an important contribution to our understanding of the cultural meanings of the war.
Lloyd's scholarship is meticulous; he synthesizes information about forms of travel, tourism, and pilgrimage from diverse sources [...] His work deserves to be admired for his careful and thorough style in which he successfully combines war and politics, private and public ceremonies, and the analysis of memory with tourism. His discussion of the war-related pilgrimage is especially useful and provocative.
Lloyd's is a fine book and an excellent addition to our understanding of the aftermath of the Great War.
